• CITRIC ACID SOLDERING PICKLE •
This 500g pack of citric acid-based soldering pickle offers a safe, effective, and eco-conscious solution for removing fire scale, flux residue, and tarnish from your jewellery pieces.

• MORE INFO •
A staple in every jeweller's soldering station, this citric acid pickle offers a gentle yet effective way to clean metal after heating. Unlike traditional acid-based pickles, this formula is non-corrosive, biodegradable, and much safer to store and use—especially in shared studios or home workspaces. It reliably strips oxidation and flux from soldered areas, restoring a bright, polished appearance and preparing the surface for finishing.
