Instructions for Use
This is an acid solution. Exercise caution when utilizing this product.
-
Gloves must be worn, and eye protection is recommended.
-
Prolonged exposure of certain metals to this product may etch and should be avoided.
-
Experimentation with specific conditions is recommended.
- Because surface is critically cleaned after treatment it must be neutralized or flash rusting could occur .
- Highly concentrated neutralizer-Galvex Cleaner is included. This neutralizes the acid and protects the surface from oxidation and flash rusting.
- It is an important last step when using Micro Brite.
- Do not use Micro Brite on aluminum or metal with high chromium content.
Practice on test blocks using different alloys to practice your technique.After welding bring the work to a rinsing area, have Micro Brite, Galvex, water, and an air hose ready.
- Put on rubber gloves. Apply Micro Brite sparingly using light scrubbing action.
- Wait just a few seconds then rinse thoroughly. Apply Galvex neutralizer.
- Dry immediately using an air hose paying close attention to drying hands to prevent leaving wet fingerprints.
