Pickling Compound Sparex 2-1/2 lb Bag

This is acid used to clean metal which is not safe for skin contact! The bag of pickling acid had a hole in it and was all over my other things in the box.

I am a silversmith and use Sparex as my pickling compound. This product turns yellowish brown in color when added to water which is not at all acceptable. It is so bad and murky that I am not able to find my silver pieces in the bottom of my small pickle pot. Awful - I will throw it out and go back to ordering it from my regular supplier, Rio Grande. A real waste of money and truly useless for any jewelry soldering cleaning process.

I use this all the time in my silversmithing - it works great to remove firescale.

Overall I’m happy with this product. If there were more information and instructions I would buy it again. Since I don’t really know if it is supposed to stay warm in a crock pot I’m not going to buy again. Can’t find anything on the internet.Arrived on time, the bag was a little broken from shipping but not too bad! Thanks a bunch!

The box was intact but the product had a tear in the bag. It was strewn all over the box and pouring out of the box flaps where it was not sealed. Now I have it all over my porch,floor, carpet and table. his product is acid and should have been properly bagged and supported with some filling I the box to keep it from sliding all over.

Gets the job done for cleaning oxides off sterling, copper, bronze, and brass jewelry pieces I make for work.

Very reeking

This vendor packaged it as well as to be expected. It was the only time I received a Sparex that wasnt split open, nice job . . .

This is a new product for me to study its use and purpose to use in the jewelry making business.

very useful
