  • Brown in color and not white
Size: 2-1/2 lb
I am a silversmith and use Sparex as my pickling compound. This product turns yellowish brown in color when added to water which is not at all acceptable. It is so bad and murky that I am not able to find my silver pieces in the bottom of my small pickle pot. Awful - I will throw it out and go back to ordering it from my regular supplier, Rio Grande. A real waste of money and truly useless for any jewelry soldering cleaning process. ... show more

  • The box was intact but the product had a tear ...
Size: 2-1/2 lb
The box was intact but the product had a tear in the bag. It was strewn all over the box and pouring out of the box flaps where it was not sealed. Now I have it all over my porch,floor, carpet and table. \this product is acid and should have been properly bagged and supported with some filling I the box to keep it from sliding all over. ... show more

  • Surprisingly good
Size: 2-1/2 lb
I put this in a wax warmer as I didn't have anything else around and only needed a tiny amount. It worked great for my soldering. I then used it to clean an antique silver compact that had black spots on it. I figured it couldn't hurt. To my surprise the black spots rubbed right off. Well, they are light brown now at least so I think I just need to leave it in longer, according to the experts. Don't get it on you because it hurts! Some got on my finger - ow. Lastly, like many have said, the bag was split and contents spilled into the box. I hope they start putting it in an extra bag. ... show more

  • Original package splits!!!
Size: 2-1/2 lb
Well like some have already said. Product was a day late probably because when I opened the package, the original package of Sparex was split and most of it was in a ziplock bag. I weighed the bag and got 2 lbs but not the 2 1/2 lbs I ordered. There must be something wrong with their original package. I’ll use it and see how it works but not worth my time to send it back. ... show more

  • Needs more instructions.
Size: 2-1/2 lb
Overall I’m happy with this product. If there were more information and instructions I would buy it again. Since I don’t really know if it is supposed to stay warm in a crock pot I’m not going to buy again. Can’t find anything on the internet.Arrived on time, the bag was a little broken from shipping but not too bad! Thanks a bunch! ... show more

  • It really worked
Size: 2-1/2 lb
My wife had bought a very, very tarnished copper plaque 24" in diameter. I built a 25'' square 2'' deep wood basin, lined it with some 6mil poly, set the plaque in it and covered it with a gal. of the acid mix. After about 4 hours I used a small brass brush in the crevises and it came out looking great. A happy wife makes for a happy life ... show more

  • Works great, no problem
Size: 2-1/2 lb
I was confused when I first came across this. It said it was used????? I decided to give it a try and there's no way I could tell if this is used or new. It works just as good as any I've used and I always use this brand. I got a two and a half bag for the price similar to the 10oz bags I usually buy. Hope this helps. ... show more

  • The best pickle I have found
Size: 2-1/2 lb
I have always used Sparex 2 in my pickle pot. Earlier this year, I decided to go green and tried every salt/vinegar formula possible. I was not happy with the results. I used a PH Down, which was better than the household combinations but not as dependable as Sparex 2. I’m back to Sparex and can’t imagine using anything else. Consistent results and fast. ... show more
