Aging Galvanized Metal Sheets Part One

[@wh0tube]

I love the smell of sawdust, chlorine gas, and zinc fumes! 😉👍

Rust Never Sleeps. I am attempting to remove galvanized from a sheet. So this video was a great help.

Thank you!

Is this Walter White from Breaking Bad? 😄Good stuff. Thanks for the video.

[@AppleValleyFarmGA]

LOL! You never know what we might "cook up". ;) JK

[@janinejohnson85]

Loved your video. You made it so simple. Have you ever used any colors on top of stripping the metal to give it another layer of interest? Keep making video....you’re a breath of fresh air!

[@AppleValleyFarmGA]

Aw. Well thank you! And no, we haven't tried colors, but that's a great idea!

That mask is a particle mask not meant for vapors btw. You really need a respirator mask for future reference...TY for the video though

[@AppleValleyFarmGA]

Very true. :) Thanks for the advice.

I am really struggling man. I watched all these videos on rusting galvanized metal. Looks like it's super easy process so I bough 100 sheets and wanted to use it as siding for a garage. But here I am and doing exactly what everyone else does and nothing. Just turns chalky white. Then nothing will take it to the next step of rust. I just can't figure this out. Driving me bonkers because I spent a lot of money. Anyhow, that's my story.

If you do what I did in this video, you should have rust. I’m no chemist, but it worked like a charm for me. I wish I could be more help.

I'm having the same problem. I can only get a white chalky finish. 4 coats of muratic acid, and i even tried a wire wheel. So frustrating.

[@designsinorbit]

@@mrbriankeith111 Yes, nothing but white chalk here as well. I have $3000 worth of shiny metal just sitting in my driveway. Sucks.

[@mrbriankeith111]

@designsinorbit my project is signicsntly smaller than yours, I'm gonna try a grinder wheel and see if I can remove the coating.

[@pattykennedy2792]

What is the bucket of water used for? I didn’t see you use it…

[@AppleValleyFarmGA]

Just in case we need it to wash the acid off of our skin or eyes.

[@phileb76]

Can you ask both sides ?

[@AppleValleyFarmGA]

Not sure what you mean Phil.
