Anyone Ever Made There Own Hold Tight/Blast Hold?
I was just thinking on how difficult it would be to make your own holdtight or blasthold liquid spray in a yard sprayer. I know pH has a lot to do with it, it would just be nice to be able to have your own recipe for when you need those extra few days. Does anybody have any recipes for this, or is it best just to go by the product.

Re: Anyone Ever Made There Own Hold Tight/Blast Hold?
Old school body shop guys used apple cider vinegar to prep bare metal surfaces and as a very light rust converter.

Re: Anyone Ever Made There Own Hold Tight/Blast Hold?
Hold Tight 102 is pricey. I was talking with a guy he was saying they use product called "tank safe" I think it was. Says it was a lot cheaper in cost. Guess they use it for water treatment with some fire trucks on tanks that are metal.

Re: Anyone Ever Made There Own Hold Tight/Blast Hold?
Pricey is really not valid. Either you want your steel to rust or not. Have you looked at hold blast from Chlor*Rid?

Re: Anyone Ever Made There Own Hold Tight/Blast Hold?
If you had two products tho that offer the same results for rust protection and one was twice the cost or even more it wold make the most sense to me to go with the cheaper one. I totally agree on the fact of getting what you pay for and if it's something you need or is required to have you can't skimp on it if you want to have a good name for yourself.

Re: Anyone Ever Made There Own Hold Tight/Blast Hold?
I've just always used what worked best and as far as cost, as long as it worked, it was just a job cost that went into my pricing.

Re: Anyone Ever Made There Own Hold Tight/Blast Hold?
I'm looking into it now. Can it be applied with a pump sprayer? Im just looking for something simple and quick. I'll
Look into both. Thanks, I just hate when someone is late to pick something up, that little flash rust looks bad. And I would like to offer it as a selling point. |

Re: Anyone Ever Made There Own Hold Tight/Blast Hold?
It can be, but it works best when added to your blast water. It will last for three to four days as long as it stays dry. Gets rained on and it will rust back as with any of the other products will.

Once again I am not basing this on anything other than what the rep told me from a his mouth to my ears at the last trade show I attended. Note** this most likely was Chlor-rid and not specifically Hold Tight...

Re: Anyone Ever Made There Own Hold Tight/Blast Hold?
Blastserv, your thinking about Chlor*Rid. This is Hold Blast by Chlor*Rid. Used in the blast water or can be applied after blast either way. Chlor*Rid itself will not stop rust though. Just removes the salts from the surface. Once applied the surface would have to reblasted again per spec. Corrosion would then be very slow to come back. But the product I was referring to was Hold Blast from the makers of Chlor*Rid.

Re: Anyone Ever Made There Own Hold Tight/Blast Hold?
I've used both Hold Tite and Hold Blast from Chlor-rid. My preference is Hold Blast. I use a Geo-Blaster and have a 400 Gal. tank plus the geo tank. I'll fill the large tank with approx 200 gal. and put in 1 gal. of Hold Blast and blast most of the day with no problems and no flash rust. Hold Tite with the same 200 gal., 1 gal. mix will rust almost immediately. With Hold Tite, (102) I believe it's 102, I must use a mixture of at least 50 to 1. or almost 4 gal. of hold tite. I now keep 2 extra 5's on hand of Hold Blast. and guess what!!! Hold Blast is cheaper.....

http://www.chlor-rid.com/productInfo/hbbrochure.pdf Here's the data sheet. It depends on what your doing as far as how to dilute. Cleaner water, less dilution.

Re: Anyone Ever Made There Own Hold Tight/Blast Hold?
I myself don't do anything with the water except test it with a test kit from Chlor*Rid to see what the chloride content is. The higher the chloride content, then the faster the steel will flash rust.

Re: Anyone Ever Made There Own Hold Tight/Blast Hold?
Buy your rust inhibitor in 55 gallon drums to reduce costs. If your buying Hold Tight in gal. or 5 gal. your paying a premium.
