Dull tin plating

We are using solderon acid bath for tin plating. In that we are facing a dull plating of tin immediately after a week of preparation of a new bath

It could be due to imbalance of Solderon Primary & Secondary and/or organic contamination. Use hull cell or rotary cell to justify if carbon treatment and/or Solderon Primary/Secondary adjustment can help.

Dear Mr.Joel,
Check the water quality to be used. It should be chloride free.
