Hi all,
I’m new to the forum and scrap computer parts quite frequently, but came across what I thought was a good deal. I purchased two bottles (31,103 Grams each) of plating solution. I’m not sure what the heck it is, but for a few dollars, I figured it was worth a shot. Anyone have ideas on what this is, and how I can best recover from it??
I’m thinking about just putting in an anode and cathode (thin strip of copper) and just letting it roll at 5V and <1a for a few days. I can throw whatever attaches there into a pile I’ll later refine.
Would I better off somehow dropping the gold out chemically and filter it? I just can’t find anything about what this stuff is, what’s in it, and what exactly it’s used for!
Thanks in advance for any guidance anyone can provide on this. I felt like I hit the jackpot, now I’m afraid I might just screw it up...
