Re: Vinegar to prep metal?

Any treatment that involves acid or water as a followup is likely to contribute to rust or coatings failure.

I say this because I've never seen in a technical data sheet (I've read many in the coatings profession) where acid or water is recommended or mentioned.

What I have seen repeatedly is clean, bare steel coated with epoxy primer, then top coated. Absolutely no mention of acid or water...
