This is my stock 250r radiator that we washed with a acid and cleaned with another chemical. No paint on it at all!

what exactly did you soak it in. I'm sure others would like to know like me. I soaked mine in just regular water for about 2 days trying to clean all the crap out of it. I'm sure that was a lot faster.

I am right in the middle of re doing my R. I have the it tore down to the frame and we welded new gussets in and re welded the factory welds. I have all new bearings and bushings for the whole quad. The frame will be clear coated on monday and i will have some pics of it. It is a dark metallic blue. Should make the radiator look great in it.

It took about 2 hours and all the paint was at the bottom of the bucket! I will find out the name of it monday. After We soaked it we took and power washed any remaining flkes off. Over all super easy to do.

There isnt even a hint of corrosion on the inside. Besided a few bent fins, It looks like a new one.
