I have recently had a problem with a flux corroding the flux tank in one of
my wavesolder machines.  The flux in use is Alpha 857, which is an OA that
is so aggressive I think we could solder a brick.

Can anyone tell what is the material of choice to construct a flux tank for
these OA fluxes.  Will PVC coating be acceptable?
