Monday, March 11, 2013 kicked off the beginning of Ecolink’s second annual social media internship to promote three green(er) industrial chemical product lines. With their 
COO Brandon Pelissero’s board membership with the Atlanta American Marketing Association (AMA Atlanta) and DECA, Ecolink recruited 3 highly talented AMA collegiate members on March 1st at the Biltmore Conference Center during the AMA Collegiate Conference and 1 spectacular DECA high school student.
Over the next six to seven weeks, each intern will manage their own industry, whether it is a specific product or a suite of products, utilizing at least 8 different social media tools and networks, design their own t-shirt and other apparel item (last year we did belt buckles, this year we’re letting their inner designers shine). Our first year of mentioning chemicals and social media worked out so well that we’re doing it again! We are unleashing an army of David’s in an industry dominated by Goliath sized market leaders.
Ecolink is excited to introduce our spectacular collegiate interns–Cameron Huppertz, Christen Davis, Harsh Goyal and our high school intern, Jimmy Hand. Each intern will promote a product/product suite specifically targeted towards an industry of Military/Aerospace, Mining, or Power Generation. Each intern will have digital profiles and 2 merchandise items to design, implement, and integrate. The intern who accumulates a combine score of most page views, on page social sharing and return on investment (leads generated, quotes, samples, sales, etc.) will earn an extra $1,000 + donate $100 to their favorite charity.
Cameron Huppertz is a Florida State University alumni with a degree in Theatre. After graduation, Cameron spent a year in Washington DC as Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company’s Literary Assistant. Through his experiences in theatre he developed a passion for storytelling, and finding new ways to share stories through new technologies.

What is a Tack Cloth?
/in Ecolink News/by Industrial DegreasersA variety of tools and items are used in industries where a substrate must be primed for finishing processes. Tack rags or cloths make it easy to remove contaminants such as dust from the surface before applying a coating. The cloth prevents resin or contaminants from creating imperfections in the applied coating. Tack cloths are treated with materials to create a unique wiping aid designed to easily remove loose particles from the surface of a part, car body, or wood-based item. They are an indispensable aid in industries where a substrate must be prepared for painting, coating, or lamination. A regular cotton rag is often applied by individuals or companies who are not aware of the benefits provided by tack cloths.
Cotton based rags not containing the tack material frequently leave lint or resin on the substrate. These particles decrease the overall quality of the finish by generating blemishes or other imperfections. A tack cloth ensures all particles are removed easily and creates a polished finish unlike any other. The product consists of cheesecloth saturated with materials such as beeswax or varnish to provide an exceptionally clean surface. They are designed for one time application as rinsing for reuse would cause particles or resin to be left over after wiping has been completed. Manufacturers make these items extremely affordable since they cannot be reused and tag cloths are essential for cleaning in certain industries.
The Multiple Applications and Benefits of Tack Rags
Several industries, hobbyists, and individuals use tack cloths to improve the quality of their products or crafts. They are most suitable for smaller surfaces or parts where dust or contaminants can be wiped off in a small amount of time. Certain designs provide better results in woodworking areas such as furniture or cabinetry making. Alternative tack cloth products may be used to prepare automotive pieces or entire car bodies for painting. Make sure you have chosen the right design to prevent harm to the base area or imperfections after the finish has been applied. Tack cloths supply specific advantages over choosing traditional cotton rags including:
The cloths carry a rather low price tag and provide a simple solution for quickly wiping down a surface prior to finishing. They do not have to be washed for reuse and an individual can be certain all contaminants are removed without having to perform additional tasks such as picking out lint. Tack cloths continue to advance as new materials are discovered and used to create unique wiping qualities. It is important to properly evaluate the substrate to be cleaned, applied finish, and additional qualities before selecting a rag for dust or particle removal to ensure it will not harm the surface or the final products appearance. By taking time to understand how a particular tack rag will affect the surface, you will be able to take advantage of the many benefits offered by this handy preparation aid.
Tack cloths are an essential aid during surface preparation and finishing processes. For more information about our tack cloth products, please call (800) 886-8240 or email info@ecolink.com.
Cleaning Power for Gas Turbines
/in Ecolink News/by Industrial DegreasersEcolink provides two products for powerful gas turbine cleaning. Both Zok mx® and Zok 27® are fantastic tools for cleaning turbines.
Powerful on-line and off line compressor cleaning fluid for gas turbines in aviation, industrial, offshore, and power generation applications.
The regular washing of gas turbines compressors is know to provide the most effective method of preventing long term compressor fouling. It ensures maximum available power output, improved fuel efficiency and reduced wear and tear on components, such as bearings and blades.
Online washing (hot washing) can significantly extend the period between necessary shutdowns for off-line washing, thus reducing costly downtime and lost production.
Zok mx® is an concentrated water-based, non-flammable environmentally friendly biodegradable fluid. Specifically developed for heavy-duty cleaning of gas turbine engine compressors. It’s a special blend of non-ionic surfactants, organic solvents, and demineralized water.
The shelf life for Zok mx® is 5 years and the pH value ranges from 8.0-8.5. The application for this product is spray ring or lance in either motor-over (off-line) or fired (on-line) wash as directed by the engine manufacturers in the quantities recommended by them.
This non-flammable product comes packaged in both bulk and small quantities! Want to learn more? Call Jimmy at 800 563-1305 x 104 or email Jimmy to buy or request a FREE quote!
Zok 27® is a concentrated neutral water-based detergent cleaning fluid for cleaning and corrosion inhibition of gas turbine engines compressors. It’s a blend of non-ionic surfactants, corrosion inhibitors, organic solvents and demineralized water.
To apply this product, spray ring or lance in either motor-over (off-line) or fired (on-line) wash as directed by the engine manufacturers in the quantities recommended by them. It is essential during hot wash that the cleaner should leave as little ash residue as possible to avoid blocking turbine cooling bald holes.
The unique corrosion inhibitor allows engines to be left ready for instant restart, even in salty offshore conditions.
