machine corrosion

[CRose]

Some of my machines are corroded to all hell from spraying them down with madacide after every tattoo... Is there some trick or tip I missed to keep this from happening...

gun blueing steel frames for one. I have the dano collins book at the shop that goes over all that. just can't remember it off the top of my head. if no one covers it i'll post asap

discide wipes. Problem solved. You can order them from kingpin.

you need to rub your machines down with 3n1 oil or something similar after you clean them with any corrosive chemical

gun bluing, painting, powder coating, and oil blackening. U can pm me for details on oil blackening. Also renaissance wax from lucky's. This is all info courtesy of dano collins.

Again, Dicide wipes from Kingpin and you won't have to do any of that.

Yeah I'll have to try those discide wipes... oiling em down is a good idea...there is now way I'm tearing down my new aaron cain machine to do any kind of frame finishing... Thanks guys!!

yeah you dont have to oil them every time, but use the wipes like Deran said, and no matter what you should oil ferrous metal frames once in a while, Im surprised it didnt say somewhere on the paperwork of your machine to do it. just put some on a qtip and some on papertowel and keep em nice and fresh son!

We use these at our shop to wipe down the machines as well, they work great and keep the machines safe and clean with out causing springs to look like they are rusted to s&!te!
