Will it harm galvanized metal heating ducts if sprayed on and left to dry ??

I didn't try that but I doubt it would. It's natural - and seems to work very well. I did spray on my metal duct around the A/C, but wiped it off....

If it recommends goof off then I have to assume that it is the product that they want you to use. There are so many finishes and materials I really have no way in knowing all of them. I can say that I have never had it damage any material or finish thus far. I can also tell you that it has a similar ingredient that is also found in nail polish remover. You might want to test it with a tiny drop of that prior to using Goof Off. It's a very strong cleaner you should use it out doors when possible if not try and use it in a well ventilated area. I'm thinking if they recommend Goof off then I do not see a problem. But that's me. My wife and Daughter both are telling me in no uncertain terms heck no! It will ruin it. Since they are the cooks I defer to them. Better not try it you will get me in trouble. Lets take the safer course of action, good luck! Having said that I still love goof Off and every home should have a can of it for emergencies, I have found it to be a life saver!

Yes, never use acid in metal sprayers...The seals will eventually swell and go bad with acid over time in any sprayer...

I would not recommend spraying it on a surface that is close to a heat source.

This product is intended for use with a clear-coat to protect the silver look. I'm not sure about long term adhesion to galvanized surfaces, but if you are going to try, I would use a standard temperature Rust-Oleum product with the appropriate primer.

I think the unit is powder coated so unless the coating is removed it should look good for a long time. If you intended to use this product outdoors or in a bathroom with a lot of moisture then perhaps after time it might show some signs of corrosion but not likely. I love the one I bought and have intentions on getting a few more.

I don't see why not, It is not plenum rated(low smoke and flame) so I wouldn't use it in Air ducts/passages.

The stuff is thin n very adhesive. You can get away with just coating it on fresh metal. It takes 3-4 days to dry though. Make sure you have enamel reducer for any spills & catch it through the petcock slot in a can because it's pricey.

My answer would be it probably would. I'm assuming your preparing a liquid for human consumption? I took a metal class in college and the galvanization process is a to drip the formed metal into a negatively charged metal solution. So,best not. Plastic, although not perfect or stainless would be a better choice. Idea,...You might line it with a safe plastic liner. Hope this helps. G L Roberts

I used it on painted drywall and even on a metallic white AC vent. On the vent I removed it quickly afraid that it can be corrosive and lead to oxidation. So far the mold have not returned and the the vent is fine.

Check with the manufacturer, but personally I wouldn't leave anything out in such heat.

The instructions proved do state that you shouldn't use during the self clean cycle. I would imagine that the high heat could cause the adhesive to weaken and allow the lock to fall off

I think the damper itself is alluminum and the housing is galvanized sheet metal. As far as high heat I wouldnt know but would assume not!

DO NOT USE THIS FOR A DRYER VENT...dryer vents contain hot air with Carbon Monoxide, you must use metal for all inhouse applications and seal eith duct taping..

I know it has been applied to surfaces that receive a lot of sun & therefore heats up & does not suffer ill effect- so it could be. But the product spray can itself would need to be kept from heat as usual.

It's not up to electrical code where I live, but I plan to be here for a long time so if it was me I would do it anyway. Many electricians won't do the work, however, if the job doesn't meet code. My only concern would be whether or not the metal parts would rust from being in a more humid environment. It's not made to be exposed to moist air like outside or in a bathroom. Good luck to you.

I would not use that around HIGH HEAT. There is a black spray paint called "High Heat" for BBQ grills.
