The Importance High-Pressure Cleaning

The job of high-pressure cleaning can be done easier & quicker by simply using Aqua Clean Tuff incorrect dosages. Using a high-pressure cleaner alone, without any CLEANER, will not  achieve  optimal cleaning results High-pressure cleaning primarily refers to cleaning of Hard  surfaces, such  as Decks, Tanks, Engine-rooms, etc. and in the majority of cases the cleaning is done according to the so-called two-step method:

Step 1:  Spraying the  Aqua Clean Tuff over the area to be cleaned.
Step 2:   Washing down the area using a high-pressure water jet.

After the Aqua Clean Tuffv has been sprayed on the surface and before the wash down begins, the chemicals penetrate & thoroughly moistens dirt & other grime. During wash down, the Aqua Clean Tuff thoroughly dissolves the particles of dirt, even oil and fat, in the water spray and thus achieves optimal cleaning results.In addition to being more effective, the use of Aqua Clean Tuff substantially reduces the time required for the Cleaning operation, as well as preventing dirt from reforming on the surface. The use of Aqua Clean Tuff in correct dosages is half the job done.

Hardened, carbonised or aged deposits may require up to 4 hours. If  the cleaning solution is not heavily contaminated, it may be re-used at a later stage. If allowed to cool, the de-gassing procedure must be repeated.
