ANODIZE RACK STRIPPER

DESCRIPTION:

The 390-A Stripper is a powdered, alkaline material which will rapidly remove oxide coatings from anodized aluminum racks. The product is a room temperature, simple immersion process that can be used to replace the standard chrome - Phosphoric strip solutions, thus eliminating chrome treatment problems.

After oxide, coatings are removed, a zincate protective film prevents further attack on the rack. Anodized parts are also easily stripped in 390-A Stripper solutions; but caution is advised because the product's highly alkalinity content could cause some attack on certain alloys.

OPERATION:

Mild steel stainless or suitable plastic tanks may be used to contain 390-A Stripper solutions. To make up the stripper, first fill the tank approximately half full with water. Stir in the required amount of salts and bring to working level.

After stripping, rinse thoroughly and immerse in Nitric Acid dip (approximately 10 to 30 % by volume.) to remove the remaining smut or metal film.

CONTROL:

When the stripping rate slows, additions of approximately 4 oz./gal. will usually restore the activity. Analytical procedures are available upon request.

CAUTION:

The 390-A Stripper salts are highly alkaline and can cause burns. Operators should wear appropriate protective clothing and eye protection and contact with skin and eyes should be avoided. Dust masks are recommended when handling the dry salts. In case of contact, flush with large amounts of water. For eye contact, flush thoroughly and consult a physician.
