IMR White Hots

Did some looking but could not find an answer. Are IMR White Hots corrosive?

Not directly corrosive but maybe like with similar subs if the residue isn't cleaned then it could possibly absorb moisture and cause corrosion after a while.

Will definitely echo what arcticap has posted. It is folly to assume that just because we might away from BP and Pyro, we leave these problems behind. Reasonable attention is always in order and so I have learned !!!



Be Safe !!!

imr whitehots are supposedly the same crap as T7 so YES, it is corrosive. Clean it at the end of the day and you wont have to worry.
