The electrode surface of the auxiliary electrode is coated with a foreign metal (Cu, Sn, etc.). What can I do?

The auxiliary electrode can be immersed for a few seconds in concentrated nitric acid to oxidize an accidentally applied metal coating. If after another measurement foreign metal should be found on the surface again, then the method parameters and electrode connectors need to be checked.

Is polishing the platinum pin of the auxiliary electrode allowed?

As a general rule, the auxiliary electrode is maintenance-free and does not require any special cleaning. If you want to mechanically clean the platinum pin, then you can also polish the surface. Make sure that you do not rotate the platinum pin while doing so because otherwise the internal contact may break.
