G.S.P Anodise Stripper
Our G.S.P Anodise Stripper is essential when dealing with anodised aluminium (aluminium which has been dyed with various colours). The dye must be stripped before you can move on to preparing the aluminium with our G.S.P AllyCu Zincate Solution - a vital step in the aluminium plating process. Simply lower the anodised piece into the Anodise Stripper, with no power*, for between one and three hours and this will remove anodise, ensuring the part is ready for the next plating step. Our G.S.P Anodise Stripper is used often when gold plating mobile phone casings, which are frequently made from anodised aluminium.
*Please note: whilst using this product requires no power, a suitable plating machine is needed for all other steps in the process of plating over aluminium. Our G.S.P 10A SmartAmp Electroplating Machine with Accessories is an ideal choice.
