Substrate Compatibility:
Steel, stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum, copper, and brass are compatible. Testing is recommended when used on sensitive aluminum alloys as discoloration may develop. Product can be used on zinc, zinc casings, and zinc plated parts if service interval for bath life maintenance is not over-extended. Over extension of bath life can cause corrosion inhibitors to be depleted and zinc to be attached. Testing before use on zinc is recommended. Do not use on magnesium.
