Chemetall - Ardrox Corrosion Inhibiting Compound, 13.5 oz Aerosol Can | AV15-13-50Z
we'll still mention a few things about Chemetall Ardrox AV 15 corrosion inhibiting compound. This formula effectively protects common aerospace metals and metal alloys. Its tack-free firm film is extremely heavy duty and is good at penetrating inaccessible areas and displacing water. Ardrox AV 15 can be used as a coating on all parts of the airframe, and it provides excellent corrosion protection with low film weight. Ardrox AV 15 can be used on painted and unpainted surfaces.
Application
Can be applied by spraying, brushing or dipping
Spray recommended for maximum penetration and most effective corrosion inhibiting
Can be sprayed with specially designed ACS-System (airmix application) or AAS-System (airless application)
Important: Mask movable parts before treatment. If spray control or masking isn't possible, consider using AV 25 instead, an alternative soft waxy film CIC.
If you're looking for Ardrox AV 30 corrosion inhibiting compound, we have that as well.

I work on old vintage motorcycles, most of which have a fair amount of oil and grease on the engine and transmission parts. These gloves are so much better than the run of the mill cheapo's that can be bought about the same price. Yes, these will tear like any nitrile glove, but these are very, very durable and do a very nice job of standing up to gas, oils, and brake cleaner. I've yet to find any better than these for the price. No complaints whatsoever.
I took the chance of ordering expired Loctite 330. It was jelled up pretty good and generally unusable. It was my fault for trying it and never called the company to complain as I took the chance and that is on me. Order the good stuff.
Had used aviation Camguard for years. Added as well to each quart of oil added to my Lyc 540 SIA5 aerostar engines. Went past TBO with excellent compressions. Oil analysis always normal.
Also add to automobiles but too early to see a benefit.
