GEL AL etching gel for aluminium 1kg
GEL AL etching gel for aluminium
GEL AL is a professional, high-quality etching gel for treating aluminium weld seams and surfaces. It effectively removes discoloration caused by welding, brazing and other thermal processing processes, the oxide layer, and burn-on deposits.
The gel is suitable both for etching weld seams and for local application to individual problem areas. Its thickened consistency helps apply the product precisely with a brush and keep it on the area being treated, limiting unnecessary run-off.
GEL AL is intended for professional use in metalworking workshops, manufacturing plants, welding companies, and in the production of aluminium structures.

Application
GEL AL can be used for:
etching aluminium weld seams;
removing welding and brazing discoloration;
eliminating oxides and burn-on deposits;
local surface treatment of aluminium parts;
improving the visual appearance of aluminium structures after thermal processing.
Use
Before applying the product, clean loose dirt, oil, and other contaminants from the surface. Using an acid-resistant brush, apply the gel evenly to the weld seam or the area to be treated.
Allow the product to act according to the manufacturer’s technical instructions. After etching, thoroughly rinse the surface with plenty of clean water and, if necessary, use a suitable neutralizer. Before treating the entire surface, it is recommended to test the product on a small, less visible area.
