Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) from Sierra is 100 per cent isopropanol for surface prep and glass cleaning in workshops and plants, in 20 L drums.

What it does

Sierra supplies this IPA as 100 per cent pure isopropanol, and the SDS lists it at 100 per cent, CAS 67-63-0. It dissolves light oils, fingerprints, residues and many inks, dissolves completely in water and evaporates fast, leaving glass, metal and other hard surfaces dry and film free. Sierra lists surface preparation and glass cleaning among its uses, and the SDS lists industrial processes.

Where to use it

Paint and panel shops, electronics and electrical workshops, glaziers, manufacturers and maintenance crews. Prep wipes before adhesives, decals or coatings, glass and screens, and equipment that needs a quick drying clean. Part of our solvents and thinners range.

How to use

1. Decant into a labelled, closable container or solvent rated spray bottle.
2. Moisten a lint free cloth and wipe over the area.
3. Let it evaporate fully before applying adhesive, film or coating.
4. Keep the drum upright, closed and checked for leaks.

Safe on / avoid

Suits glass, metals, ceramics and most hard surfaces. Test acrylics, some plastics and fresh paint first. The SDS says to store it locked up, cool, dry and shaded, apart from food, heat and ignition sources. Read the Safety Data Sheet before use.
