Oxalic Bath

(1/3) > >>

Swivel:
Been reading about this and a bit concerned i'd mess things up, so need advice. Just bought a mongoose survivor and parts could do with being cleaned up or rust removed. I understand from what I've read that a Oxalic bath will sort out the parts and bring them back to a very good condition.

Where do you buy this stuff and has anyone does this before?

Any advice given would be useful.

Thanks in advance,

Riz ;)

i'd say superbikeDan is the best person to talk to on this subject, he's a Pro on these topics !?

My local powder coaters do the acid bath & shot blasting for free.

they only Charge £20 for f&f too.

It might be more sensible to get out the yellow pages ;)

what are the results like though?  you may get it cheaper but are they as good as Dan?   :daumenhoch:

I didnt mean it would be better than dan, but a lot easier to find somewhere local usually than spending it all on couriers.

im sure theres a lot of workshops, maybe classic motorbike restorers? that would be up to the job.

Its nice to find good trades people locally.
