Polishing of Mesh Electrode

Mesh electrode is a small and fragile electrode, and you can not polish in an usual way.
One recommended way is the regeneration of the electrode by a weakly polishing with 0.05 µm polishing alumina (Cat. No. 012620) using cotton swab, as shown bellow.

Fig. 1 Drip one or two drops of distilled water onto alumina pad, before drop the 0.05 µm polishing alumina (Cat. No. 012620).

Fig. 2 Drip one or two drops of 0.05 µm polishing alumina (Cat. No. 012620) over the mesh electrode.

 Fig. 3 Touch lightly with a cotton swab, be careful to do not to put too much force.
Never rub, because if you do it, you will broke the electrode.

After polish with 0.05 µm polishing alumina (Cat. No. 012620), rinse with distilled water and dry.

If the residual alumina still remain in the surface of the electrode after rinse with distilled water, do the ultrasonic cleaning (65 - 100 W) for a short time (about 10 seconds), and rinse again with distilled water and dry.
