Hey guys, you will be happy to know I havent posted for a while because I have been busy anodizing with some pretty great results.(thanks Caswell). Now that I things are going good I need to know a couple more things.
Can I stop? OK not all together just momentarily, is there anyplace in the process I can put the parts on hold. By this I mean. Lets say I make my ano tank bigger but dont want to make all my dye tanks the same. If I do a batch of parts that all need to be the same color, can some of the parts wait while I put what will fit in the dye at a time? I have been dyeing most colors for 30 minutes and dont know if a part can wait that long between ano and color.
Also it takes awhile for my tanks to heat up so it would be easier if I could one night prepare a bunch of stuff for ano batches for the next night. So what would happen if I did sp and de-ox one night, then left parts in a rinse tank untill I put them in a ano tank a day later?
I am only asking cause sometimes I think to much, and it would maybe be more efficient if I could do one part of the process a night, but i dont know if its possible. I have read that from dye to sealer must be done quickly, so I know thats out.
Thanks Guys,
Dave
