Hi Sean. No. Ren Wax just kind of sits on top of the metal. So if you have a visible pit before you will have a shiny pit after! Glenn ... From: hackett_sean...
Jerry, am I allowed to make a general post to a specific member? What do you do with your coins that are pitted? All answers from all members welcome. Sean...
Interesting that you bring this up. I've had in the back of my mind a plan to set up a small electroplating bath using featureless ancient coins as anodes. I...
Hey my friend! Sean, we open forum and you may address anyone you like! Sean, for now I am simply putting most of the pitted coins aside.. God Bless.. ...
I just received a new and interesting Uncleaned lot that contains about 25% to 30% Greek coins. Not quite as many larger coins as in the previous premium lots,...
Hey my friend! Sean, I would not use copper for the anode and it is fine for the cathode. If you use for the cathode you will need to clean the surface ...
Jerry, I received the anodes from Bob. They are twice the girth of the ones I have been using. How do you recommend I attach them to the positive wire? Also, I...
Hey my friend! Sean, I use anodes that measure up to 1" in diameter. I have used larger. I use a #10 multi strand wite. I strip the wire about 3- 4 inches ...
Hi, I have been doing some other unrelated experiments with electrolysis and i came across some articles which warn against using stainless steel electrodes...
Hey my friend! Sean 3/4" is what I like. The carbon can be cut with a "chop saw", table saw, or a band saw.. It is not that hard.. God Bless.. Jerry.. ... ...
Hey my friend! Doug you are correct about the chromium. I have long warned members not to use ss anodes.. Doug, one can buy graphie drawing sticks at art...
Doug, one other thing. One can effectively use mild steel for an anode. A very large nail will work. The steel will rust but apparently is very safe. Just ...
After changing the water a few times over several weeks, if a coin stops fizzing, does that mean that only the patina is left to work with? Using graphite...
After removing a coin from the zapper, dipping it in vinegar, working it with soap and a nylon brush, then rinsing; is it OK to hang back in the tank? Will...

Hey my friend! Sean, as the crust is eliminated then the coin will fizz less. There is some darkening of the coin. However, after zapping hundreds and ...
Hey Sean! After washing well you have gotten rid of the vinegar. Any trace amounts would be so minimal it would not make a diff.. God Bless.. Jerry.. ... ...
I did my first time with a spoon (corrodes), changed to copper pipe (gross green buildup), then found graphite (just dumps some dark powder in the water). You...
I currently use a 12 volt / 600 milliamp ac power supply with my zapper. It takes quite a while to get the crusties off. I have a 12 quart tank, use two 10"...
Wow Sean! I never argue with anyone who is having success. If your setup is working then continue to use it. 12 quarts of water seems to be a lot to me. I...
Jerry, what is the AC voltage output you are using to get 6 amps? I think I don't know enough about electricity to be asking the right question here; I am...
Being up here in God's country-northern Wisconsin- one must make do with what one has. My cabin, The Loft, has no electric power to it. However I built a...
