Just put on rubber rubber gloves ⇦ on eBay or Amazon [affil link] , use a Cotton Swab, or an old cloth, swab on some of the deox solution from the deox tank, then rinse, then using 4 times concentration of whatever chromate you have, swab it on until the yellow color does not wipe off, let cure 24 hours, ship.

We carry out this process on a large number of parts, the solution we use is alocrom 1200 made up to double strength, pre-clean the parts brush on until the correct shade is achieved and rinse off, depending on the size of parts you can air dry or blow dry.
