Direction for use

1. Clean the weld area carefully using a stainless-steel brush.
2. Roll or shake the drum of Weldbrite if possible for 30 seconds prior
to opening the container to ensure a smooth consistency. 3. After welding ensure the area to be pickled has sufficient time to cool below 40⁰C.
4. Apply the Weldbrite gel to the area to be cleaned, using the brush provided or with an acid resistant spray pump and applicator. DO NOT PICKLE IN DIRECT SUNLIGHT.
5. Application times may vary depending on ambient temperature, the grade of stainless, surface.
6. To clean, rinse the surface with clean potable water. The best results are obtained by the use of high-pressure water jet or similar. Ensure the pickle residues are not left on the surface.
