Picklex 20
Anybody use Picklex 20? Sounds like an easy to use product for anybody not doing a frame off, but wanting an easy application for treating rust and making a sound surface for priming/painting.

Not much help, but I bought a bottle that I haven't tried yet...

Re: Picklex 20
I've used it as an interim step on parts not yet painted, but laying around the shop for extended periods. I have not used it as a rust preventative for long term however. For how I am using it, I like it.

Re: Picklex 20
Anybody else? I'm thinking of using some of this before I put my floor patches in.

Re: Picklex 20
Guess I'm really not sure now. At $39 per pint I might give it a try, but it would have to be really good! Not sure I want to pay $9 plus from autobodystore.com to ship a pint UPS though.

Re: Picklex 20
I bought mine directly from the manufacturer. I don't recall how much it was but I remember it being slightly cheaper than other places that I priced it at. The shipping was a little pricey though.
I went to their website and for some reason I can't get their online store to come up. Sorry...

Re: Picklex 20
Unless I am misunderstanding the info in your link, that price is for 12 quarts. And when I looked at it this is what the price was...
OSPHO SURFACE PREP QT Quantity: 12 Per Unit Retail Price: $189.96 Regular Price: $172.69 Checkout Price: $155.42 Maybe try calling a local Ace store and see what they tell you. Good luck!

Re: Picklex 20
I paid less than $30.00 per gallon for mine!
This stuff is like water and goes a loooooong ways! I did a whole (in and out) cross member with about 6 ounces,most of which went on the ground.I spray it with an old 409 bottle and rub it in with a brush. I used to buy it at the marine supply store along with fiberglass resin.I had to bring my own gallon jug! Mike. |
