I meant from Marci/Thermochill. After all they're the guys that know what they're talking about as they know how the radiators are made.

Yes I have seen discussion on the corrosive properties of vinegar on copper - but I (like the majority of people on here) will do either what the Sticky says, or what someone from Thermochill says.

The sticky suggests that cleaning using vinegar in your rad for various soaks is absolutley fine, therefore loads of people doing this. Yet Marci* is now saying that its fine to clean with hot water and vinegar leaves black deposits (which shows the vinegar is eating away the rad**)

*= This is not anything personal to you Marci, its towards Thermochill.
**= Based on the info given from Kurz.

I would however like to think that if the rad is now damaged and leaks due to these instructions I would legally be able to obtain a replacement being that I was acting on advice from thermochill's technical director. I'm sure Marci was just trying to help folk tbh.
Yeh, so its probably Thermochill that didn't tell him and he was just saying that because he assumed it was the best thing to do, worked on other rads and was trying to help you out like you say. This is why im not blaming it on Marci.
