THINK
Even a streamliner has to take a "Saturday Night" bath to keep sleek and shiny . . . and that's no small undertaking. It's usually accomplished by swabbing the stainless steel exterior with an acidic cleaning solution which is subsequently rinsed off with water. One large railroad company recently observed that ordinary cleaners did not provide the desired cleaning action. Furthermore, there was definite evidence of corrosion. Investigation by Victor's research laboratories revealed that of all acids tested only a dilute solution of phosphoric acid would efficiently clean the cars and restore the bright finish of stainless steel without harmful corrosive action. Solving production or maintenance problems with phosphorous compounds is a major activity of Victor's research laboratories. Next time you are confronted with a problem, think first of Victor.
