Does ACF-50 go off?

The fact is, ACF-50 doesn’t ‘go off’, but if you apply it to your bike, it will have lost the majority of its protective qualities after a period of around 24-months. Can you treat your wheels? Yes, wheels are fine and it’s especially good on spoked wheels.

Is ACF-50 safe on electronics?

ACF-50 (Anti-Corrosion Formula) is an aerospace product that is now available to motorcyclists. Its aviation approval is MIL-SPEC 81309 Type II and III, which means it is approved for ferrous and non-ferrous metals, electrical systems and electronic components.

Does ACF-50 work on steel?

ACF-50 spreads itself and sticks to the metal. It doesn’t stay “sticky”, but it is a magnet for dust. In other words, if you protect metal with ACF-50, you’re going to have to wash it off thoroughly after the winter is over. The reward is a clean motorcycle at the other end of winter, but it doesn’t come without work.

Can you put ACF-50 on paintwork?

Safe on paintwork, most rubbers and brings up black plastic trim a treat. ACF-50 contains no water and is approved for electrics so spray directly into electrical joints and components where it will prevent corrosion induced failures and high resistance joints. Works well at stopping dirt, mud and salt from sticking.

Does ACF 50 contain silicone?

ACF-50 remains physically and chemically effective for up to two years. It is important to emphasize that ACF-50 is also an excellent lubricant but does NOT contain any wax, resin, silicon or Teflon… compounds that can gum up mechanisms, block drain holes, or trap moisture to cause corrosion.

Does ACF 50 really work?

ACF-50 outperformed every product I could compare it with. Interestingly, while only a thin film is needed to work, I did find that the very best protection was given by the little spray bottle that comes with the 950ml size – the steel with this thicker coating is still rust-free after almost six months outside.

What is ACF 50?

What is it? ACF-50 (Anti-Corrosion Formula) was originally designed to protect aircraft from existing and new corrosion and is now available to motorcyclists. When applied ACF-50 forms an ‘Active’ ultra-thin clear film that will kill any existing corrosion cells and will protect your bike against new corrosion forming.

Does ACF-50 contain silicone?

Is ACF-50 safe on plastic?

Can you use ACF-50 on cars?

ACF-50 is an excellent anti-corrosion/lubricant thin fluid film that penetrates deep into crevices for corrosion protection. Originally designed for use in the aerospace sector to support flight safety, ACF-50 is widely used on vehicles of all types.

Does ACF-50 really work?

Who is the company that makes ACF 50?

ACF-50 is a product by Lear Chemical Research, an aviation chemical research company that nobody has heard of unless you’re in aviation technology. It doesn’t seem to be related to Learjets, but the name still sounds cool as it implies a connection.

How is acf-50 used to prevent corrosion?

ACF-50 actively penetrates and “creeps” into the tightest seams, lap joints, micro cracks, and around rivet heads, displacing moisture and other corrosive fluids (orange juice, coke, coffee, salt water) in these corrosive prone areas. ACF-50’s thin film acts like an “OFF SWITCH” for corrosion remaining effective for up to 24 months.

Is it safe to use ACF 50 lubricant?
