 Frame Bath for AFB
 
My opinion? Burn frames and buy new ones.
Sorry if you have to convert to metric.
 
 
Chlorine Bath:
4 oz. sodium hypochlorite per 100 gal H2O
 
or
1 gal Chlorox (chlorine) bleach per 100 gal H20
 
Lye Bath:
1 lb lye per 10 gal H2O
 
 
All H2O should be boiling or almost that HOT.
 
Keep frames submerged with post or weights.
These materials will harm you if proper protection isn't employed.
