About Sealant Flexibility

Remove oil- or solvent-based residue from metal, plastic, wood, carpet, upholstery, and painted surfaces.

Gels cling to vertical surfaces to remove residue more effectively than liquids.

Silicone, Caulk, and Foam Sealant Removers

Remove silicone, foam sealants, caulk, wet or dry latex-based foams, and construction adhesives. Safe for use on plastics, fiberglass, and most metals. These removers cannot be sold to Canada due to local chemical regulations.

Uncured Epoxy Removers

Less aggressive than our standard epoxy removers, these solvent-based wipes remove uncured epoxy adhesives and solder paste. They are often used to wipe excess epoxy and paste off printed circuit boards and other electronic components.

Heavy Duty Degreasers

More effective than water-based degreasers, these solvent-based degreasers cut through the toughest grease and oils.

Degreasers with acetone evaporate quickly without leaving a residue. They are often used to clean bearings and other metal parts.

Degreasers with a citrus scent contain citrus oil to dissolve adhesives, tars, and waxes. They are nonflammable and free of harmful vapors. Rinse parts and wipe them clean after degreasing.

Degreasers with soybean oil are an economical alternative to degreasers with citrus oil. They leave a coating that helps prevent rust and are also nonflammable.
