To: "Mike Devour - Silver List" <[email protected]> Date: Wednesday, February 18, 2015, 9:13 AM Jason - I have been using flat electrodes for twelve plus years, and have not a problem with them, they clean easily with paper towel and sometimes soap and water depending upon the buildup - I use distilled water to rinse them prior to use. Wrap them in felt to cutdown on air assault from polution and the sea. If they have become pitted over the years then I cannot see any sign of this with a magnifying glass, they are perfect as the day I started using them !!!! Hope this goes towards reducing your concerns. Sandee🐬 Attitude is everything !!!

It was hard to talk to the maker of the product as he does not like to talk much so I know nothing about these flat electrodes. Any information would be helpful.

Praps I shouldn't have said anything. You know the old saying, "Rather not say anything and let people think you're an idiot, than open your mouth and remove all doubt"...LOL. Thanks for your insight regarding pads. Well here's one hypothesis, the suspected poor quality DW used on that occasion, in combination with the stir bar spinning action, may have developed a situation whereby whilst in storage some silver was pulled to the centre where the stir bar spun? Cross contamination? I know silver is not magnetic, but who knows if other unknown contaminants in the DW may have combined to encourage that end result? I don't know, perhaps a magnetic field was created, again with the combination of impurities in that particular batch of DW, created an opening/situation for some "reaction?" or agglomeration or "something?" to take place, and to take place *only* where the stir bar was situated? What confounded me was the fact that it not only occurred once, it occurred twice after filtering and cleaning that storage vessel out? Another of life's mysteries I guess.
