Naval jelly is considered safer to use than traditional liquid phosphoric acid metal pretreatments. For rust removal on body panels, the naval jelly is kept wet. Paint failures from phosphoric acid are thought to be caused by wiping on the acid, and letting it dry. | Naval jelly is considered safer to use than traditional liquid phosphoric acid metal pretreatments.

If not, this will almost certainly cause an adhesion problem."'' | ||
