Sonic Klean provides excellent wetting and is therefore an excellent choice for pre-plate cleaning. Removes: inks, polishing and buffing compounds, grease, oils, fingerprints, drawing compounds, metalworking fluids.

Application Procedure:
Sonic Klean is effective at ambient temperatures. However, it is normally used at 5 to 15% by volume of water at 120 to 180 °F for 5 seconds to 10 minutes. The parameters can vary due to the type and extent of soils to be removed. Temperatures may be increase slightly for shorter time cycles. Not safe on magnesium. Test for discoloration on cuprous alloys and for compatibility with aluminum alloys.
