Salt-X SX50
Salt-X SX50 is a concentrated washing/rinsing agent designed to remove salt residues, crystals
and salt water from virtually any surface leaving a protective coating that preserves and extends the life of your
dive dear.
The Washing Myth:
'Dunking and rinsing Dive Gear in fresh water removes
Salt...'
It Doesn't!
Rinsing dive gear will significantly reduce the salt residue provided the salt has not been allowed to dry. Once
dry salt forms a corrosive bond which rinsing will not break down. This salt residue slowly deteriorates your
dive gear and this costs you money.

fabric.
The right photo is the same pouches after a quick soak in SX50. All the encrustation has been removed
SX50 breaks down this bond and neutralize the salt's corrosive ability, stopping further
damage. It then protects the metal or fabric from the destructive effects of Chloride Salts and minimise
further damage. Its unique chemistry:
- Attack, dissolve and de-activate Salt.
- Neutralise salt and salt water droplets instantly.
- Penetrate hard to reach areas to de-activate hidden salt.
- Protects treated surfaces.
SX50 can be used for removing salt from virtually anything:
 |
Any Scuba Equipment: Regulators,
Wetsuits, BCDs, Tanks. |
 |
Underwater Cameras and Housings |
 |
Boats and Boating Equipment |
 |
All Fishing Tackle; Rods, Reels,
Lures & Hooks, Anything |
 |
Vehicles, Trailers, Camping Equipment
etc |
 |
Outboard & Inboard Motors and
Heat Exchangers |
 |
Homes, Buildings, Gardens and Garden
Furniture following Cyclones & Coastal Storms! |
 |
Anywhere Salt is a Problem and HAS to
be Removed!! |
By using SX50 during cleaning and wash-down, your equipment will last longer, hold it's value
and require reduced maintenance and repairs.
Incredibly Simple to Use:
- Mix concentrate into fresh water: 1 litre makes 36 litres for normal rinsing. ( In an emergency you can
even use salt water! Just mix 1 litre to 20 litres!!)
- Soak item to be cleaned
- Remove and drain SX50 solution back into container
- AIR DRY!! Your done, your valuable equipment is salt free and protected!
- Pop a lid on your container of SX50 solution and use again until depleated.
SX50 gets into cracks and crevices, and rapidly disolves and destroys the salt residue that has accumulated
there! As aggressive as SX50 is in removing even the harshest build up, laboratory tests have proven SX50 to be
Non Toxic and Totally Environmentally safe!!

These photos illustrate how effective SALT-X SX50 is in protecting equipment from salt water corrosion.
After 12 days the hooks, nuts, and bolts in the left hand jar of salt water are severely corroded, while the
same items in the jar on the right, which contained Salt Water + SX50 are clearly unaffected.
This test was conducted at DEMA, Dive Equipment Manufacturers Association in Las Vegas in 1991. It clearly
demonstrates how effective SALT-X SX50 is in neutralizing the corrosive ability of salt water.
Diver gear is expensive and Salt significantly reduces the life of Wetsuits and Dry suits, BCDs,
corrodes tanks once protective paint coatings are damaged, creates havoc with regulators and salt crystals can get
into seals on camera housings causing leaks.
Diligent rinsing and soaking after a dive, NEVER removes all the
salt!
Effectively removing salt from Dive gear without causing damage to metal, glass, rubber,
fabrics, etc. has always been a challenge. SX50 will remove the salt
SX50 will NOT harm rubber, fabrics, metals, glass, or plastics.
If your Dive Gear is heavily salt encrusted, simply mix 1 litre of SX50 with 35 litres of fresh water and soak
your dive gear.
This regulator that had not been serviced for about 4 years.
It is heavily salt corroded and many threads totally frozen with salt deposits!

The same regulator following an overnight soak in Salt-X SX50.
All surface corrosion and salt deposits have been dissolved.
After soaking in SX50, let your Dive Gear AIR DRY. Do NOT wash off the SX50!
Take a small Spray Bottle of SX50 for cleaning Camera & Video Housings between dives, then you can safely
open them to change batteries or data storage without worrying about salt and salt crystals!
Use it on zippers to keep them working smoooothly!!!
Salt-X SX50 is recommended by manufacturers such as Diverite for the maintenance of their Scuba Equipment because it increases the life and
reliability of their dive gear. It also makes servicing easier, because there is no salt residues or
encrustation!
Standard Sizes: 1, 4 & 10 Litres.
