Buffer Cleaner is for zinc and epoxy based tank coatings.

BUFFER CLEAN will clean and upgrade coated cargo tanks after cargoes such as leaded gasoline, gasoline blends containing MTBE, carbon tetrachloride, methylene chloride as well as virgin naphtha.

Application

DIRECTIONS FOR USE/APPLICATIONS & DOSAGE RATES : Before cleaning with Careclean Buffer it is recommended to prewash with hot water.
Never dilute BUFFERCLEAN with seawater of river water. For solutions always use freshwater.

HAND SPRAYING METHOD
1. Apply 1 litre undiluted BUFFERCLEAN per 10 Ltr of Water
2. Let the cleaner penetrate for 30-45 minutes
3. Wash down with freshwater and check results preferably with a wall wash test kit.

NOTE: Heat is achieved by the use of a heat exchanger, steam coils or live steam injection. The advantages of this method are that heat and chemicals are recovered and can be used again to clean additional tanks. It is important to use fresh water only. The use of river- or seawater will cause a reaction which decreases the efficiency of the solution for tank cleaning.
