    Hello All,

    I’m looking to connect with anyone who has had success with easily cleaning and removing zinc oxide from kettles, hoses etc.  What advice, cleanser etc can you provide to help remove?

    Possible with good rinse.

    What if we started with a sanitizer rinse which contains Per-acetic acid and hydrogen peroxide.  Would this work?  (understanding we would need to go back and resanitize after cleaning)
