Description
PS 13420 is a high-strength, water-dilutable alkaline cleaner engineered to remove cured and uncured industrial coatings—including adhesives, resins, epoxies, paints, inks, and latexes—from the interior surfaces of tanks, reactors, heat exchangers, and associated process equipment. Its fast-acting, low-foam formula is ideal for use in recirculating spray systems, agitated soak tanks, and fill-and-boil cleaning operations.
Designed to replace manual scraping, cryogenic removal, water blasting, and flammable solvents, PS 13420 supports faster turnaround, reduced labor, and improved safety in production environments. It is fully rinseable, non-flammable, reusable with proper maintenance, and includes built-in rust inhibitors to protect steel surfaces during cleaning.
