Metalprep works brilliantly. I find it best to clean up the part first with
a light rub over with fine sandpaper then a dip in Metalprep has the part
gleaming and spotless, all ready for the ALODINE. I treated the early parts
of the kit to Anodising but find the ALODINE sytem much more flexible as
befits building your own plane in the garage.
