Zerust® AxxaClean™ 2048 is a fast-acting and nonhazardous* rust and tarnish remover. It rapidly removes light to medium corrosion even in cracks and crevices. Cleaned surfaces are free of black-carbon residue and resistant to flash-corrosion.
Zerust AxxaClean 2048 cleans ferrous metals, brass, copper and various alloys of rust and tarnish. AxxaClean 2048 has a pH of about 2.5, similar to a soda drink, making it simple to use and minimising disposal hassles. AxxaClean 2048 comes in multiple delivery forms; Immersion, Spray-On, and Brush-On. Surfaces treated with Zerust AxxaClean 2048 are protected from flash-rust or re-tarnishing for several days in a controlled environment. Cleaned and dried items can be immediately painted or welded.
For optimum results with AxxaClean 2048, rinse cleaned items with a solution of AxxaVis™ PX-05AN acid neutraliser and dry thoroughly with filtered compressed air. For corrosion prone metals like cast iron, use a Zerust rust preventative such as Z-Maxx™, Axxanol™ or Axxatec™ product. For additional corrosion protection or protection beyond one year, use Zerust VCI packaging films and papers.
The thick viscosity of AxxaClean 2048 Brush-On product is easy to apply and clings to vertical surfaces, making rust removal quicker and with less mess.
