REMOVING HARD BURNT POLISHING COMPOUND
2005
HELLO EVERYBODY
YES WE DO LOTS OF NAMEPLATES AND BADGES ON BRASS.
PROCESS:
1/POLISHING BRASS PLATE
2/ETCHING
3/POLISHING
4/PLATING
THE PROBLEM IS THAT IT TAKES LOTS OF TIME TO REMOVE HARD BURNT POLISHING COMPOUND VIA AN ULTRASONIC MACHINE USING A DEGREASER.
H E L P PLEASE COULD ANYBODY TELL ME HOW TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM.

dear Ali,
what a quest in finding an answer to that, its been 9 years on..!
1. I suggest you implement a proper, new, adequate ultrasonic with high penetrating power just for your brass components..badges, plates etc
Do not mix zinc alloy, steel and others
2. And it would be advisable to use cleaning agents in relation to your polishing compounds...which is very very important
