Let's see... computer pins are mostly made from an iron and nickel alloy. What part does the peroxide fill in dissolving the metal? This is not a copper chloride leach that needs oxidation to work.

In my opinion the peroxide or oxygen doesn't fill any real function (a bubbler creates movement though). Time and / or heat makes the reaction go faster.

So, to recap:

Newcomer #1: I'm using AP method for pins...
Glorycloud: AP is not best method for pins.
Newcomer #2: I'm using AP method for pins...
Goran: AP is not best method for pins.

Anyone else see a trend in this thread? :lol:

Both newcomers: cement out on copper to make sure you haven't dissolved any gold, put it away, and do some more studying. We'd love to help you learn to do this more effectively.
