#266 Citrol® Citrus Cleaner & Industrial Degreaser

Citrol® is a safe, biodegradable degreaser with astonishing cleaning power. It outperforms solvent, solvent emulsion and alkaline cleaners for removal of heavy greases, carbonized oils, gear lubes, grease buildups, oily deposits, tar and bituminous deposits. Equally effective in soak tanks, pressure spray, foam on and manual cleaning methods, or in high pressure cleaning applications outdoors. One of the few solvents tough enough to remove stubborn printer's ink

Reduces Environmental Reporting Requirements

Citrol® is a powerful degreaser that falls outside the EPA and OSHA hazardous waste regulations when mixed with water. Schaeffer developed the products because the EPA and OSHA are moving towards requiring gallon for gallon "use-and-disposal" records of all petroleum products. This means if you buy 55 gallons of kerosene or Stoddard Solvent, you will have to account for the disposal of all 55 gallons. Citrol® is the biodegradable, citrus based solution.

Gentle on Hands

Harsh solvents can dry out your skin and crack your cuticles. Citrol® is made from orange and lemon extract making it a friendly degreaser - safe for people, and gentle on the hands.

Super General Purpose Cleaner

When it comes to using Citrol® as your first choice in cleaners, don't stop at work. Citrol® works great at home as well. Keep a can in your work shop, garage and laundry room for hundreds of other applications including:

Adhesives - Blood - Candle Wax - Car Grease - Crayon Marks - Magic Markers - Lipstick - Make-up - Gum - Stickers - Soap Scum - Scuff Marks - Shoe Polish - Tree Sap - And much, much more!

(Note: Spot test in small area prior to over all use.)

Cuts the Heaviest Grease

Nothing is heavier than open gear lube. It's thick, it's tacky and it sticks to anything it touches, even worse than tar. We compared Citrol® and one of our leading competitors. We coated a stainless steel sink with our hardest-to-remove grease - Schaeffer's Silver Streak Open Gear Lubricant. We poured two ounces of #266 Citrol® on the right and a leading competitor on the left.

Replaces the Need for Vapor Degreasing

99% Reusable

(Practically Eliminates Disposal Cost)

Citrol® also saves you money because you use half as much. In fact, for most jobs, it dilutes 5:1 with water. Best of all, Citrol® is 99% reusable. After settling and top skimming, Citrol® retains it's powerful cleaning ability. This cuts disposal fees because you discard only the oily contaminates, not the cleaning product. For lighter jobs, dilute Citrol® with water, up to 15:1. On very light jobs like cleaning floors, stripping wax, up to 30:1 and more.

Fifteen seconds after pouring-and without rubbing-Citrol®'s powerful ingredients began to dissolve and lift the grease. Within one minute, the lubricant and grease began flowing down the (disconnected) drain. The competitor's did nothing, even when rubbed with a shop towel.
