Product Data Sheet Safety Data Sheet

Description
QED-T is an exceptional solvent degreaser formulated without chlorinated solvents or other hazardous ingredients. The base for QED-T is a unique high-grade hydrocarbon distillate that dries very quickly without leaving a residue. QED-T is safe for use on all types of electrical apparatus, ferrous and non-ferrous metals and many rubber and plastic surfaces.

The physical properties of QED-T are a nice balance between safety (flashpoint), evaporation rate, toxicity, and odor.

QED-T is strong enough to remove grease, fuel oil, carbon and organic resins yet safe on many plastic and rubber surfaces. After use, QED-T evaporates rapidly leaving no residue of any kind. After hand wipe cleaning with QED-T, surfaces are ready for painting, bonding or other critical applications.

Benefits

  • Mild Odor
  • Contains no water
  • Very rapid evaporation
  • Fully evaporative, leaves no residue
  • High dielectric strength for use on electrical apparatus

Applications
Use undiluted. Spray or wipe QED-T on surface to be cleaned, oil dirt and carbon will flow off surface. If additional cleaning is desired, agitate with rag or brush.

To speed the drying process, wipe with a dry cloth or use compressed air.
