I have set up a bucket for electrolysis cleaning some iron relics. I am using a 2 amp 12VDC battery charger and water with baking soda. Everything appears to be working and bubbling. My problem is that the wire is doing all of the bubbling and not the iron part. I made sure to file a clean spot on the relic to make a good electrical connection also. After 4 hours a small bit of scale came off the relic but very little. The hanging wire is nearly dissolved where it goes into the water. The relic is an iron harness buckle that weighs about 1lb.
What type of hanging wire works the best? Currently I am using a piece of soft solid core picture hanging wire that appears to be zinc coated maybe? Any advice would be much appreciated!
