detergent system with potent wetting agents. It
was specifically formulated to remove highly
stable oils, coolants, and drawing compounds
from ferrous metals. This special balance of
ingredients provides longer solution life, easier oil
separation, and more efficient cleaning in
agitated soak tanks. It is inhibited to help
prevent oxidation.
