Polishing technique for Working Electrode
To carry out analysis, the Working Electrode must first be polished to give a smooth
surface to allow for plating. To polish the electrode, firstly make sure the glass platen and
holder are clean and free of dust or dirt which may cause scratching. Place a clean cloth
on the platen and dampen the cloth with the polishing solution provided. Hold the
electrode perpendicular to the platen and use a smooth figure of eight motion as
indicated.
Polish until the surface has a mirror finish and no scratches or imperfections are seen.
