No, it doesn't turn yellow... should it? Just to be safe I'll refrain from
ingesting the glop from the tank. I have noticed the stainless gaining a
tinge from the paint color of the part being de-rusted. It wipes right off
so it may not be electrically deposited, but simple settling.

Does your solution slowly turn yellow? That's hexavalent chromium, and
it's DEADLY POISON. That's why it's strongly suggested not to use
stainless electrodes.
