Platinized anodes or stainless steel for cyanide plating?

What is the advantage of using platinized anode over S.S.-316 in cyanide gold plating & acid gold plating.

Hi, Jay. As long as the solution in question does not attack stainless steel then there is probably no advantage to platinized anodes. But the tech data sheet supplied with the plating process will tell you what kind of anodes to use. Good luck.
