I use the same product..I keep getting what looks like rust mainly along the soldered seams of a piece..Any idea what I am doing wrong...I used a fresh brush each time.....I called the company and they said they had no idea.

deb vankoughnet , You possibly may not be picking it long enough. Excess flux in the seams can cause a problem it it isn’t completely removed. I’ve found that if you move the piece around occasionally when its in the pickle, it will clean the seams better.

@jadeheart911 6 жыл бұрын

As I read your response I got thinking maybe the pickle is old also. I am going to do a fresh batch and try that too. The piece would clean up nice but then after it was all done and oxydized and polished...as it sat over time it would show a bit of what looks like rust along the seams where it was soldered. So frustrating when the piece turns out so nice and I cant sell it because Im afraid it will rust after I let it go. One thing I noticed in your video is that you used the baking soda and water to rinse it. I know I have done that with LOS but I didnt know I had to with Max Black. I will try that and see if it helps. Thanks so much and keep the videos coming!!! You are a great teacher!

deb vankoughnet did you find the cause? I have had the same issue. I thought it was the soap and water I used after oxidizing?

@laurenc9275 4 жыл бұрын

For some reason this doesn't seem to work for me :( I had a nice deep black color on my piece after applying Black Max, but as soon as I placed it into the baking soda and water, the black immediately went to a chalky light grey. Perhaps I put too much baking soda in the water? I've attempted this twice, the second time I thought I just didn't leave it on long enough or it wasnt clean enough but after cleaning with denatured alcohol, and not dipping in baking soda water for 10 minutes, I still can't get the black to stick. The baking soda seems to immediately remove/eat away the color. If you have any tips please let me know!

L Cross , I always make sure that it’s clean. I pickle it, and dry it completely. Any water will affect the outcome.
