Recochem Gunwash 9 is a blended cleaning solvent for flushing paint from spray guns, lines and equipment, in 20 L drums (minimum 4) and 200 L drums.

What it does

This is the xylene formulation of Recochem's gun cleaner: light aliphatic naphtha with acetone and xylene, plus a little kerosine, ethanol and butyl acetate. Mixing hydrocarbon and oxygenated solvents gives a wide boiling range and strong solvency for most paints, so it strips wet paint from equipment fast. Recochem notes some components may be recycled, which keeps the cost down. It is made for cleaning, not for thinning paint.

Where to use it

Automotive refinish and industrial spray shops, fabrication paint lines, and any workshop with gun wash machines, pressure pots, cups and fluid lines to clean. Part of our solvents and thinners range.

How to use

1. Empty the paint from the gun or pot.
2. Fill with a small amount of Gunwash 9 and spray through into a closed waste container until it runs clear.
3. Flush fluid lines and pumps the same way, or fill your gun wash machine to the maker's level.
4. Wipe the air cap and needle, then let the equipment dry before the next colour.
5. Keep spent solvent sealed for recycling or licensed disposal.

Safe on / avoid

Suits metal spray guns, cups, pots and fluid lines. Do not use it to thin paint; Recochem states it is not formulated for that. It will soften paint films, plastics and many seals, so check gun seals are solvent resistant. Read the Safety Data Sheet before use.
