Not equal for 2024 Tx alloy
High concentrations of chromates give the protection for aluminum alloys with copper - 2024. Looking at the MSDS, this does not contain chromates (10% or so) and would not be equal in that respect. Scratch tests show non-chromates (with a few exceptions) preform much more poorly with this alloy which dominates the RV build.
