Of course it will. This is why you should always flush all of the foam out of the appliance when you're finished.

Foam is very corrosive, it does not help that they don't treat the ally lines. Its a world wide problem, yet no one wants to fix the problem, yet its so simple.

We deleted foam off our fire utes at barbagallo raceway for this reason...We now use coldfire as its not corrosive and its a hell of a lot cheaper
