    If indeed it is the clasp that is contaminating the pickle (this is
    especially the case if your pickle solution is warm) a good way
    around this is to use a paint brush to apply a liitle bit of pickle
    on the chain where you soldered it. It is not really good practice
    to dunk the entire chain into the pickle.We each have a small piece
    of glass to rest the chain on for this purpose. As we do over 100 a
    day this solution is gold. 

Cheers and good luck.
