Aqueous Cleaner and Degreaser

Industrial Applications



Our product formulations are a homogenous blend of "colloids", sequesterants, surfactants, and hyperwetting agents that by a proprietary process of formulation and concentration become super active. Because of the incorporation of colloids in our products, the ceaseless random movement of molecules taking place in the compound stimulates a similar reaction in oils, greases, and other soils that need to be removed in most industrial processes. After our aqueous cleaners have penetrated these soils, they are lifted from the substrate being cleaned and suspended by a colloidal action. During the rinsing process the soils cannot recombine as the molecules actually repel each other due to the colloidal action. Because of this, our cleaners exhibit excellent rinsability characteristics. Because colloids generally are little known and less understood, a brief explanation of what they are and how they work are in order. See the technical overview.

General Purpose

UniClean VII is very effective as a general purpose cleaner for many applications. Because UniClean VII comes in a concentrated form, it can be diluted with water for most applications making UniClean very cost effective. UniClean can be diluted from full concentrate to a dilution of 1 part UniClean VII to as much as 100 parts water. To determine the best solution for the particular job, start with a mild solution and gradually increase the strengh until the desired results are obtained. It is important to note that time and energy can be saved by allowing the UniClean to do most of the work. Accordingly, on difficult areas it is suggested that the cleaner be given time to penetrate and break loose the dirts, greases, oils and other soils from the surface before attempting to wipe or rinse clean. Remember always rinse from the top down when possible. The following is a partial list of common items that can be cleaned with Uniclean VII: The dilution ratios are suggested ratios. You may vary these to stronger or weaker mixtures depending on the cleaning problem at hand
Hand Cleaner 1:0 Floor Scrubbing 1:20
Medium Degreasing 1:5 Laundry Compound 1:30
Spot Remover 1:3 Glass Cleaning 1:80
Light Degreasing 1:10 Hard Surface Hand Wipe 1:10
Carpet Cleaner 1:20 Auto/Truck Detailing 1:3
Stainless Steel 1:6 Parts Washers 1:6
Exhaust Hoods 1:3 Chrome 1:5
Garbage Disposer Cleaner & Deodorizer 1:0 Power Washing and Steam Cleaning 1:5

UniClean VII is a unique superactive blend. It has an enormous variety of industrial and home uses as a general purpose cleaner, degreaser, carpet or fabric stain, mildew remover and deodorizer, multi-purpose soap/detergent replacement or additve. It is non-flammable, non-toxic, non-hazardous, environmentally safe, and biodegradeable. It contains no chlorides, nitrates, phosphates, sulfates, or petroleum solvents, and can be used on wood, metal, plastic, glass, painted surfaces, and concrete. Uniclean VII is entirely safe for use on anything unharmed by water. In many cases, agitation, scrubbing, and increased contact time will help UniClean VII,s unique cleaning action, especially for really tough jobs. Removes grease, oils, animal fats and other contaminates.

Metal Cleaning

UniClean VII is an excellent cleaner for the removal of mill and processing oils from metal fabrications prior to painting or powder coating. No oil film forms on the water and rinsing is complete. UniClean VII may also be used in spray washing and ultrasonic cleaning systems, as well as in soak, parts washer, or hand operations. UniClean VII has been used in alkaline metal etch tanks to improve the uniformity of the etch and retard the formation KoH and metal ion salts. Because of the absence of chlorines and halogens, UniClean VII is excellent for use in cleaning titanium. UniClean in full strength makes an excellent cutting fluid in machining operations. After rinsing use your compressed air hose to dry surfaces quickly.

Degreasing Operations

UniClean VII is a heavy duty concentrated degreaser developed for the industrial user. Cost effective & flexible with excellent rinsability characteristics. Dilutable for your specific cleaning needs. Removes grease & oils from metals, fabrics, plastics, and optical components. Cleans hydrocarbon based contaminates as well as animal fats. Works for hand wipe applications, dip tanks, parts washers, and power washers. For specific degreasing operations by catagory refer to our suggestions for High Tech, Medium Tech, and Low Tech applications.

High Tech and Critical Cleaning

For critical cleaning of parts that are generally smaller, and individual components with high value. The required level of cleaning is critical to your process. UniClean VII at the proper dilution has been used in critical areas such as electronic cabinets, equipment decontamination, fiber optics, cleaning filters of synthetic hydraulic fluids in aerospace applications, telecomunications equipment, Testing & measurement equipment, optical grinding and polishing operations, Process industries, research and other close tolerance procedures. When diluting UniClean Concentrate for these types of applications dilution should always be with distilled or de-ionized water.

Medium Tech

Close to critical cleaning. The required level of cleaning is less than critical but likely to cause quality control problems if not cleaned and rinsed correctly. Examples would include; Ink removal from printing equipment. Works well on water based, oil based, and soy based inks. Heavy equipment cleaning and decontamination, Oil removal from fabricated metal products. Marine, Charter and Pleasure Boat cleaning of all surfaces as well as bilge cleaning. All kinds of degreasing.

Low Tech

Parts still need to be correctly cleaned but the process for achieving this goal is not as technical or exacting a standard or application. Low tech examples would include; Janitorial, Restaurants, Maintenance, Floor scrubbing, Degreasing shop floors, Glass cleaning, Hand cleaner, Power Washing, Fleet Vehicle Cleaning and General purpose industrial cleaning where waste reduction is important. Eliminates caustic or hazardous cleaners that would require reporting or special handling.
