About CitraKlean Clear
CitraKlean Clear is a concentrated, dye-free citrus cleaner and degreaser formulated with natural solvent derived from orange peels. Its powerful cleaning chemistry removes tenacious oils, grease, dirt, tar, adhesives, waxes, inks, polishing compounds and other difficult soils while providing excellent rinsing across a broad range of industrial surfaces.
Engineered especially for ultrasonic cleaning, CitraKlean Clear delivers an added process advantage at 140°F (60°C): removed oils rise to the bath surface where they can be coalesced and removed, helping reduce oil loading and extend useful bath life. Cleaned components can be rinsed normally or, in appropriate heated ultrasonic applications, allowed to flash dry.
CitraKlean Clear combines broad multi-metal compatibility with corrosion inhibitors for mild steel and aluminum. Its dye-free formulation makes it particularly well suited for precision parts, production equipment and other cleaning applications where strong citrus degreasing, clean rinsing and minimal residual contamination are important.
