Title: Molasses bath query Post by: Rabbitoh on January 29, 2008, 09:44:15 AM Does anyone know if Molasses immersion eats die cast parts. I have had some items (like tail light surrounds, Fe bonnet emblem surrounds) come out looking a bit moth eaten? Can’t recall them being chewed-up prior to dipping.

Title: Re: Molasses bath query Post by: mikey on January 29, 2008, 02:48:27 PM Is it due to the molasses being or becoming a bit acidic? If so it will explain the eating away of the die cast.
