Cleaners/Degreasers

The correct surface preparation prior to plating is of the utmost importance. Slight traces of grease or oil, even finger prints, can completely ruin a good plating job. Yet most commercial systems use harsh alkaline cleaner that are tough to handle and extremely caustic, causing fumes and quickly burning skin etc. They can also cause catastrophic corrosion of aluminum when it is immersed for even a few seconds.
