compounds and loose debris to assure proper preparation of surface
metal for coating adherence. Degreasing and cleaning materials to

b. Deoxidize, passivity and condition metal surfaces to retard corrosion
(particularly at the interface of the aluminum fin and copper tube
mechanical bond) and deposit corrosion protective phosphate salts
on the surfaces. Materials to meet recognized standards.
