Request Information on Electropolishing

We have some "mild steel" articles which we would like to electropolish prior to electroplating. Is this possible or can electropolishing be done only on stainless steel? Would welcome answer.

Thank you,

Yes, you can electropolish steel as well. Look for basic formulations in the metal finishing guidebook.
