Extrude hone - a concern

I have an upper plenum, SLP runners, and an Edelbrock base on the sideline. I want to send it off as a whole unit to extrude hone and have them do their thing and gasket match to whatever gaskets are best.

I have heard something about extrude honing leaving chemical deposits behind - any truth to this?

I've never heard of any concerns about chemicals left behind. Just wash them with soap and water when you get them back and dry them well.

I had an Edel TBI manifold done by them and it came back clean as a whistle
