Hi,
I am doing a test rig for a PCB.
The PCB finish is HASL lead free finish.
I am thinking about using a spring contacts for testing the PCB's and the spring contacts will be soldered on to a test rig PCB.
The developed PCB will sit on top of the spring contact that is soldered to the test rig PCB
My question is from the following document it is recommended that mating gold contact with tin surface is not recommended and I was not able to find tin plated spring contact.

The manufacturer suggested to pre-tin the gold coated contact since they haven't got any non gold plated contacts.
Can anyone please guide me how to remove the gold coating from the spring loaded contacts.
