AF-CLEAN

Walter Surface Technologies announces AF-CLEAN, a new and environmentally-friendly surface cleaner and degreaser designed to replace toxic solvents in the preparation and cleaning of metallic surfaces prior to treatment. This product comes from the company’s Bio-Circle environmental solutions division.

An ideal alternative to acetone or toluene for surface preparation, AF-CLEAN cleans and prepares metallic surfaces prior to painting, priming, coating, gluing, and corrosion protection, as well as cleans molds for plastic injection. Compared to traditional solvents, AF-CLEAN is non-flammable, VOC-reduced, biodegradable and less volatile than toxic solvent compounds.

The liquid is available in a 10-liter (2.64 gal) bag-in-box and in a bulk 208-liter drum. AF-CLEAN and the Air Force refilling system significantly reduce costs for storage, handling and disposal — empirical tests have shown that a 10-liter bag-in-box can replace as many as 36 aerosol cans!
