Title: Is Anticorrosion Fluid The Same As Honerite?
Post by: darita on April 18, 2022, 09:06:40 PM
I use Honerite when I hand sharpen my woodworking tools to prevent rusting and corrosion, so I'm wondering if Honerite is the same as Tormek's Anticorrosion Concentrate?

Here are the sheets for both Tormek ACC and Bora Honerite Gold. Unfortunately, I am not a chemist.

It seems that both use the anticorrosion properties of carboxylic acids. The Honerite adds a nondescript amine, that can also have anticorrision property and create a protective film.
