dataway when you rinse with alcohol following dipping/submerging the parts in muriatic acid do you go directly to the alcohol or rinse in water first? If you've already stated this somewhere in this thread I missed it. Then following the alcohol do you string the part up and immediately plate it? If not how do you keep it from rusting? I am in a very humid climate down here and have prepped many batches of steel components with muriatic before taking them to the cad plater but spray wd-40 on everything immediately after rinsing the muriatic off with water, to keep everything from flash rusting. The plater cleans the wd-40 off before putting the items through the plating process.
