They have lower weight because they are manufactured with far less material in their fins and tubes than previous models, and because the heavy lead-base solder traditionally used in copper-brass radiators is replaced with a very small amount of light brazing alloy.

So failure to adhere to this rule leads to the paint bubbling on the surface due to uneven adherence of the paint.

And since the brazed copper-brass models can be brazed without flux (which is not the case with aluminum radiators), their cost can be reduced even further.

A quick wipe down with a damp cloth or sponge, some warm water and mild detergent or washing up liquid should do the trick. Rust Remover Gel is specially developed for the safe and effective removal of rust from metal items.
