Using SURFOX-G and SURFOX-T electrolyte solutions
The electrochemical cleaning process uses the power of
electrical current and the electrolyte cleaning solution to
remove heat tint without altering or damaging the surface
of the parent material. It will leave a clean surface, free of
residue and promote the formation of a uniform and stable
chromium oxide passive layer that will protect the surface
of stainless steel from oxidation. The electrochemical
cleaning should always be done on AC (Alternating
Current) mode available on all SURFOX models.

Using SURFOX-T electrolyte solution
Electrochemical polishing is a process which removes
parent material from the work piece and brightens
the weld. This process will alter the surface and is
mostly used to clean welds on mirror finished material.
Electrochemical polishing is done on DC (Direct Current)
mode available on the SURFOX MINI and SURFOX 204.
