Solvent-Based Parts Washing Solutions

Leave a corrosion-resistant film on parts after washing. These solutions have a mild odor and contain no chlorinated solvents. They cannot be sold to the areas listed because they exceed local regulatory limits on VOC (volatile organic compounds).

Note: Use only at room temperature; do not heat.

Solutions with 141° flash point are known as high-flash-point solutions.

No-Residue Solvent-Based Parts Washing Solutions

Unlike other solvent-based parts washing solutions, these won't leave anything behind. They have a mild odor. They cannot be sold to the areas listed because they exceed local regulatory limits on VOC (volatile organic compounds).

Note: Use only at room temperature; do not heat.

Solutions with 141° flash point are known as high-flash-point solutions.

Solutions for Microbial Parts Washers

Use in bioremediating (also known as self-cleaning) parts washers. Microbes in the solution consume and destroy grease and oil to prevent it from building up in the solution. Dilute with water to make 19 gallons of solution.
