Don’t know if anyone has seen this. Pretty good test and results especially for this of us without ability to blast every small part.

He said spi says not use acid under epoxy,I don't think that's right. I belive SPI only recommends ospho and only when directions for using it are followed completely,which is what I think that second test was. I'll look and see. Yep Ospho is the only phosphoric acid treatment,SPI recommends.

I'm looking at getting some Tamco Moncoat for axles and small parts but their Q&A says "Do not use any form of rust converters..." but if you neutralize like in video don't see why it wouldn't work.

Some of the paint over rust products use tannic acid as part of the process the tannic acid needs some iron oxide to work( anyway that's what I was told by one of the manufacturers a decade or so ago when I was researching it. I'd ask the manufacturer for more info,not us.
