Default Re: Fresh copy cad system leaving white swirls

When are you drying? Are you going straight to the chromate after plating or drying the part first?

As Sean has said, natural zinc/copy cad will rust (white rust) if it is not protected by either a wax or a chromate finish imediately after plating.

Cheers
