Recochem Kerosene Clear is a low cost degreasing solvent with slow evaporation for workshops and blenders, in 20 L drums (minimum 4), 200 L drums and IBCs.

What it does

Clear kerosene is a mix of aromatic, paraffin and naphthenic hydrocarbons. Recochem pitches it at solvent degreasing wherever effective, low cost cleaning is the aim: it dissolves greases, oils and many organic compounds, dries slowly with minimal residue, and mixes with other organic solvents. With aromatics below 19 per cent, Recochem rates the clear grade as easier on the user than strongly aromatic solvents. It has no added colour.

Where to use it

Mechanical and fleet workshops, plant maintenance, engineering shops and formulators. Parts trays, engine and gearbox components, tools, and blends that need controlled evaporation. Part of our solvents and thinners range.

How to use

1. Fill a parts tray or brush washer, or apply by brush to the part.
2. Let it soak into heavy grease for a few minutes, then scrub.
3. Lift the part out, let it drain back into the tray, and wipe or air dry.
4. Replace the solvent once it is heavily loaded with sludge, and dispose of the waste through a licensed collector.

Safe on / avoid

Suits steel, cast iron, aluminium and most metal components. Test rubber, plastics and painted parts first. It is flammable and slow to evaporate, so keep rags and trays away from heat and ignition, and do not store it near aerosols or corrosives. Read the Safety Data Sheet before use.
