Brake Cleaner is the degreaser for effortless cleaning
Various branch institutions in The Netherlands are currently running a campaign called 'How safe is my brake cleaner'. Through a brake cleaner test, workshops can quickly test whether the brake cleaner is safe for usage. This blog discusses the safe usage of Kroon-Oil Brake Cleaner and which substances you should avoid in Brake Cleaners generally.
Brake Cleaner, what is it?
Brake Cleaner is an excellent cleaner and degreaser containing a volatile hydrocarbon as its main component. Supplementing the Brake Cleaner with additives assists in the extra loosening of deposits.
It is the product of choice for removing brake fluid, grease, dirt and oil from brake components. In addition to cleaning brake components, Brake Cleaner can be used as a fast, effortless cleaning method for electronic and magnetic contacts (breaker points and spark plugs) and other car components.
