Tri-sodium phosphate

2003

To Whom It May Concern,

Could you please advise what mix ratio is needed to anodise aluminium using trisodium phosphate [on eBay or Amazon]?

Best Regards,

Hi Walter. Although tri-sodium phosphate is used for decorative (non-functional) anodizing of titanium, I have never heard of it being used for any aluminum anodizing. Please spend a few paragraphs describing what you are trying to do and maybe someone can help.
