Is there anything that "neutralizes" Calcium Chloride? I have the tire off the rim and it’s somewhat rusty, I plan on wire brushing off the worst of the rust and remounting the tire (no fluid), but don't want to leave any behind to continue the rust process.

dhermesc: I don't think there is a whole lot you can do if tube has had a slow leak for sometime, thus keeping the rim saturated with CC. Once the CC has taken the finish off the rim and penetrated the steel, the process will be quite hard to stop.

If you have just spilled some CC on a rim with good finish during tire removal, just wash it down, sand any rough spots and paint the rim. Not perfect, but is the best one can do.

The Gemplers catalog has a couple different products that might work for this. Rust Converter is something that has worked for me. They also have a special rim paint. Gemplers.com or 1-800-382-8473. ps I don"t work for them.

They don't use calcium in tires around here from what I've been told. It's too hard to dispose of calcium & only a few tire shops will change tractor tires with calcium. Our local Case/IH dealer doesn't change them either. They are now installing used permanent antifreeze in tires.

Has anybody heard of a new product being used in place of CaCl? Somehow a conversation between me and my Dad drifted to the subject of Calcium Chloride. He claimed there was some new thing that mixed with water but wasn't corrosive.

Maybe it's that environmentally friendly snow melt stuff that supposedly dogs can eat?

About all you can do is wash it off real well and then sand/blast/wire wheel them. The CACL is a type of salt and the only way to get rid of salt is to wash it off real well.

When i worked at a tractor dealership, we would thoughly rinse the rim and dry it. Then remove all rust w/ wire brush and apply at least 2 coats of a good primer. Let rim dry overnight and apply baby powder to inside of rim and to the tube so the tube wont stick to the rim. Baby powder will also aid in preventing a pinched tube. Have fun!

I'd have them sandblasted. A fellow around here does it for $60 per hr. You can do alot of blastin in an hour.
