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.

Pilots HQ had the best price on the pump needed to replace the one on my plane that was failing. It actually shipped ahead of schedule, arrived quickly to my IA who was ale to install it and get me back in the air in a timely manner. Great service and price.
I stopped in looking for some very specific AN bolts. The ladies up front went way out of their way to help me find the bolts I needed. Got my annual done that weekend thanks to Pilot HQ.
