Acid on g2 chassis
 

About a month ago I ran my new IB4200's and after the first one I noticed acid leaking and covered the aluminum on the chassis. Is there anything that can be used to clean the chassis?

you could try greased lightning. it is great stuff really works well on an array of stuff, takes off anodizing though which could be good in some cases. also dissolves CA glue for taking tires off rims. really really good stuff and it does not harm aluminum. try it!!!

thanks...I will give it a try

The residue of Ni "battery-acid" should just be water soluble. No need for strong stuff. Try to wipe it off with a wet tissue.

DAF

I tried and it wouldn't come off

Oh, sorry :013:

Maybe some Alcohol?

would gin work? lol j/k

I had exactly the same thing happen to me with a brand new pack of IB4200 all over my chassis

I just hate cleaning the truck because those acid spots just make it look horrible

You may have to polish the spots back to match up to the orginal aluminum.

if funny how so far on this thread the ib4200's are the problem causes.
lol im buying a used chassis of sylvester and he also has a acid spot.
and he was using ib 4200's
what a co-wince-a-dence!

other than that, do they work well for the most part? I almost bought some! yikes!

Yes, they work great for me!

I had a similure thing happen to me awhile ago. I put baking soda on it over night and then washed it off with water.
