What are aqueous cleaning solutions? Aqueous cleaning solutions are water based cleaners that can be used for parts cleaning and degreasing heavy machinery. As these cleaning solutions are water based they are not only safer for the environment, but also for the personnel handling the cleaning solution.

Oftentimes heavy chemicals and mineral spirits are used for parts cleaning, but these chemicals present risks to the user and require protective gear for safe handling. If you are looking for an easy and affordable way to make your facility safe and environmentally conscious, using aqueous cleaning solutions may be right for you.
