Thank you for the details. I didn’t see anything about a rag saturated with water on the packaging, but I saw that same explanation when I read online about it. Sounds simple enough. I also read that, for larger applications, baking soda can be sprinkled onto the metal after using the rag to neutralize any remaining phosphoric acid.
