Your concern is totally valid. You should not use nickel anodes. Perhaps neither their solution until you know exactly what they sold to you. G. Marrufo-Mexico

Hi There,

Check with the supplier whether they gave you white bronze, or Palladium bath, there is no question of using Nickel Anode, it has to be Graphite or Carbon insoluble anodes.
