Description

SAFE STRIP is an environmentally preferred paint and resin solvent. This product effectively replaces methylene chloride, toluene, benzene and other hazardous solvents traditionally used for paint clean up and paint removal. It has a much lower Inhalation Hazard Index than Meth or MEK, making it a safer chemical to use in commercial and industrial applications.

Effective on a variety of cured and uncured coatings, SAFE STRIP may be used in an immersion tank or as a brush on, rinse off solvent.

Benefits

• Biodegradable
• Non-flammable
• Low VOC emissions in use
• One-step coatings removal
• Performance similar to MEK and methylene chloride
• Non ozone depleting

Applications

SAFE STRIP is effective on all coatings, even two step high-solids epoxy and polyurethane resins. SAFE STRIP is an excellent paint gun cleaner. Use SAFE STRIP in a gun-cleaning tank, with heat and/or ultrasonic or mechanical agitation. Reaction time varies with the paint or coating to be removed. For fastest stripping action, SAFE STRIP may be safely heated up to 140° F.

SAFE STRIP is recyclable and may be used over and over again. After recapture, spent material may be vacuum distilled or decanted to effect soil separation and allow the solvent to be reused.
