Flush new radiator
Well ok, I ended up connecting the rads to a garden hose and flushing them this way, because I couldn't get the air out of the tubing leading to the pump and didn't want to risk damaging it. On the second rad, I've only used water so far (tap, will rinse it with distilled in the end) but on the first one I used balsamic vinegar (quite a lot maybe 1:3 vinegar:water for one shake+drain) and I'm not sure if that is what caused this, it appeared the morning after the first rinse. What is it, how to clean it and should I be worried?
Copper Chloride, it's what happens when bare copper oxidizes, probably just some water splashed onto the bare copper ends that aren't painted nothing to really worry about if you want to get ride of it some isopropyl alcohol and a small brush should remove all of it.
