Cerfa-Kleen 5380

Cerfa-Kleen 5380 is an ambient temperature, non-nitrited, spray cleaner with short-term in-plant rust inhibition.  The non-foaming formulation has no chelates, but is stabilized for use in moderately hard water.  Cerfa-Kleen 5380 presents no barrier to subsequent coating or welding.  Cerfa-Kleen 5380 has proven to be an excellent alternative to the use of solvent emulsion cleaners.  It works very well in barrel cleaning, and may be used in all stages of multi-stage washers.
