This is not exactly what you're looking for, but I would suggest getting it ceramic coated by Swain, Jet Hot or Airborne Coatings. This probably isn't what you mean by economical, but it will certain

That sounds like the one that my business partner bought. It actually does pretty well on the auto body sheet metal that we've used it for. We're gutting a Honda Civic to turn it into a race car, and

They're still available at Sears, at least. I haven't seen them in 1/4" drive, but Sears has 8 point sockets in 3/8" drive. ...and the 7/16" eight points are good for the engine and tranny oil drain

I'd worry about the acid fumes corroding any exposed metal anyway, whether you etch right up to the lift or not. Even though you use fairly dilute acid (at least compared to the reagent grade stuff t

Geez, is that old issue still being brought up in the popular press? That was de-bunked quite a few years ago now; there was one report several years ago, based on very incomplete data, of a slight c
