Cleaning Common Electrodes
Hi Louie,
Depending on he deposits left on the Electrodes. What I usually do is reverse the connections on the electrodes in the same solution as they had first been submersed in.
This way there is no clean up afterwards, and the metal that once coated the electrode has now dropped back into solution.
I hope this helps,
Robb.....
