PPG Commercial Coatings has added CFX744 CORROKLEEN 44 rust remover to its OneChoice Commercial universal ancillary brand.

CorroKleen 44 is designed to be used full-strength on rusted or mill-scaled hot-rolled steel or rusted cold-rolled steel. It is free of phosphates, other strong acids and solvents. Its shear-thinning gel structure also allows application through airless spray, chemical-resistant brush and trigger hand sprayers, making it the appropriate choice for use on sensitive equipment or when blasting is not practical, PPG explained.
According toSteve Podlas, PPG brand manager, Commercial Coatings, CorroKleen 44, in most cases, can completely remove rust only two hours after application; mill scale may take slightly longer.
CorroKleen 44 is intended for numerous markets and uses including general metal rust removal, heavy-duty construction equipment, industrial machinery, valves, trailer frames, hot-rolled steel fabrications and equipment that can be sensitive to blast media.
