White Crust (rust?) on new chain after stripping process
Quote | Reply
Hey all,
Curious if anyone has any insight into what happened here.

I followed the mineral spirits, degreaser, alcohol process and then upon drying out, this white crust started to form on some of the links.

A bit of searching is suggesting a zinc hydroxide rust? It's very superficial and scratches off easily.

Any harm to chain integrity? What can be done to avoid this from happening again?

Thanks :)
