About cleaning section of anodizing aluminum
My problem is that what kind of deruster can be used when anodizing aluminum 6061 or some other alloys of aluminum, and can we use "Chemapix-ACM" as a deruster for our aluminum material. Thank you very very much.

We don't like to recommend one brand of proprietary products over another on this forum, Mehmet, but the supplier should be telling you whether the product is appropriate for desmutting aluminum. There are suppliers specializing in the plating and anodizing field in Turkey and the neighboring countries.

Anything termed a "deruster" is probably not intended for use on aluminum as aluminum doesn't "rust" - a term usually reserved for steel! I tried to find "Chematrix" on the internet but drew a Google-blank!
