3M Scotch 1626 Degreasing Cleaning Spray

3M Scotch 1626 Degreasing Cleaning Spray is a dissolving cleaner engineered to remove fats, oils, lubricants, adhesive residues, resins, and tar from industrial and automotive surfaces. The residue-free, non-corroding formulation with high cleaning substance concentration delivers effective degreasing without leaving surface film or damage.

Key Features

  • Residue-Free Dissolving Action — Completely dissolves targeted contaminants without leaving film, haze, or oily residue after evaporation.
  • Non-Corroding Formulation — Safe on all metals, painted surfaces, and components without causing corrosion or material damage.
  • High Cleaning Substance Concentration — Concentrated formulation delivers powerful degreasing with minimal volume required per application.
  • Clear Transparent Composition — Transparent formulation allows visibility of cleaned surfaces and confirmation of cleaning progress.
  • Asbestos and Contamination Removal — Effectively washes away asbestos particles and other hazardous contamination from surfaces requiring safety-critical cleaning.

Description

Industrial Grease and Oil Accumulation Challenges

Manufacturing, maintenance, and automotive work environments accumulate heavy greases, cutting oils, adhesive residues, tar, and contaminants on machinery, tools, and work surfaces. These contaminants interfere with assembly, inspection, maintenance, and safety procedures. Traditional degreasers either leave residue or risk material corrosion. Scotch 1626 addresses this challenge through chemistry that dissolves contamination without residue or material damage.

Dissolving Chemistry Versus Suspension

Many degreasers suspend contamination in liquid, requiring rinse-away and leaving residual film. Scotch 1626's dissolving action chemically breaks down target contaminants into smaller molecules that evaporate or disperse, eliminating residue and the need for water rinsing. This approach simplifies application and eliminates cleanup complexity.

Non-Corrosive Material Compatibility

Industrial environments involve diverse materials—ferrous metals, aluminium, stainless steel, painted surfaces, plastics, rubber. Harsh degreasers risk corrosion or material damage. Scotch 1626's non-corrosive formulation safely addresses multiple materials without compatibility concerns or secondary damage risk.

High Concentration Efficiency

Concentrated formulation means less product is required per application, reducing consumption and cost per use. Industrial applications benefit from this efficiency—larger work surfaces or heavier contamination require manageable product volumes.

Asbestos and Hazardous Contamination Handling

Industrial facilities sometimes encounter asbestos-containing materials or hazardous contamination. Scotch 1626 effectively washes away these hazardous particles, supporting safe facility maintenance and remediation procedures. This capability differentiates it from general-purpose degreasers.

Pre-Assembly Surface Preparation

Contaminated surfaces prevent successful assembly operations and bonding of adhesives or fastening systems. Scotch 1626 prepares surfaces optimally through complete degreasing without residue, ensuring subsequent assembly steps proceed without contamination interference.

More Information

Application Instructions

Identify grease and contamination requiring removal. Assess the type and extent of oils, greases, adhesive residues, or tar requiring cleaning.

Ensure adequate ventilation. Work in well-ventilated areas or outdoors; the aerosol produces vapours requiring air circulation.

Shake the canister thoroughly. Mix the contents by shaking vigorously for 15–20 seconds to ensure uniform propellant and cleaning substance distribution.

Apply directly to contaminated area. Spray the degreasing spray directly onto grease, oil, or contamination from approximately 15–20 cm distance.

Saturate the contaminated surface. Apply sufficient spray to thoroughly saturate the area, allowing the dissolving action to penetrate the contamination.

Allow dwell time for heavy contamination. For stubborn or heavy grease, allow 30–60 seconds dwell time to permit chemical penetration and dissolution.

Wipe or brush if needed. For thick deposits, use a stiff brush or cloth to assist in dissolving and removing contamination whilst the spray is still active.

Wipe clean with cloth. Use shop towels or rags to wipe away dissolved contamination and excess spray residue.

Inspect for complete removal. Check visually and by touch to confirm all grease, oil, and residue have been removed.

Reapply if necessary. For extremely heavy or layered contamination, repeat the spray-and-wipe process until the surface is completely clean.

Allow complete evaporation. Once cleaning is complete, allow the surface to fully air dry before proceeding with assembly, painting, or adhesive application (typically 5–10 minutes).

Dispose responsibly. Collect contaminated cloth or towels for proper disposal according to local regulations and waste management protocols.

FAQs

How does Scotch 1626 differ from water-based degreasers or pressure washing?

Scotch 1626 dissolves contaminants chemically without suspension or residue—no water rinsing required. Water-based degreasers suspend contaminants requiring rinsing and leaving potential residue. Pressure washing is mechanical; Scotch 1626 is chemical. The dissolving approach is faster and leaves no film behind.

Can I use Scotch 1626 on electrical equipment or components with exposed circuitry?

Always disconnect power before spray application to electrical equipment. The spray itself is safe on de-energised components and won't damage plastics or rubber. Allow complete evaporation (5–10 minutes) before re-energising equipment. Never spray on live circuits or energised equipment.

Will Scotch 1626 remove old paint or varnish, or only greases and oils?

Scotch 1626 is engineered for greases, oils, adhesives, and resins—not for paint or varnish removal. Whilst it may soften some old coatings slightly, it's not formulated for complete paint stripping. Use paint-specific strippers for varnish and paint removal.

Is Scotch 1626 safe for asbestos-containing material cleanup, or should specialised products be used?

Scotch 1626 effectively washes away asbestos particles from surfaces. However, if dealing with high-concentration asbestos remediation or disturbance of asbestos-insulated materials, follow regulatory safety protocols and specialised remediation procedures. For routine cleanup of asbestos dust and particles, Scotch 1626 is effective and appropriate.
