To all:
        Are there any negative effects to using ultrasonic cleaning on nickel/gold
plating?
        My reason for asking is this.  We recently plated two panels and tape
tested them prior to ultrasonic cleaning.  Then after ultrasonic cleaning
and during our final machining process, we experienced poor gold to nickel
adhesion.
        Any input would be greatly appreciated.
