ACTASOL

Developed for use in the aerospace industry, Actasol is a low volatility substitute for Methyl Ethyl Ketone (M.E.K.).

Actasol is made especially for surface preparation, general solvent cleaning and removal of corrosion preventative coatings. It is a readily biodegradable solvent replacement for mineral spirits, thinners, and chlorinated solvents. The use of Actasol reduces risks of hazardous chemical spills, eliminates most hazardous waste disposal costs, and eliminates the health hazards associated with traditional solvents. Actasol is a specialty formulation representing a major improvement in Occupational Health and Safety standards as well as being biodegradable and an improved environmentally safe solvent.

Usage

Actasol is suitable for general degreasing and cleaning of all oily and soiled aircraft surfaces including wing leading and trailing edges, hydraulic pipes, landing gear and wheel wells. Actasol can be used as a surface cleaner prior to painting and sealing of aircraft components. It can remove all CIC (Corrosion Inhibiting Compounds) from all areas of aircraft; below floor structure, side wall structure, doors and wheel well areas.

Actasol is applied by brush, rag or scotch brite pad on the surface that need to be cleaned.
