Passivate Drawing Note Advice

[macduff]

Hello,
I have a 410 CRES drawing note along with a heat treating note, and need advice on which passivation spec to use. I first used QQ-P-35 which is obsolete, which is my bad. They change it without notifying me to MIL-DTL-5002 which I believe is wrong. It think it should be per AMS 2700 which is specific to cleaning CRES. The MIL-DTL-5002 seems to generalize with processing al type of materials. Is this an incorrect statement?

Thanks a bunch,

We call up AMS 2700 when appropriate, and 5 years or so ago did some research to justify why.

Sadly I can no longer remember any details.

I have used all of them in the past.
From my experience, the companies that we have used to do the passivation know and understand MIL-DTL-5002 more often.
