Improve parts cleaning in your maintenance operation as well as reduce hazardous waste the activity generates. Use aqueous parts washers that use water-based solutions. They are less dangerous to operate than petroleum solvent parts washers. Aqueous cleaners eliminate the slight fire risk that petroleum solvents such as mineral spirits present.

Additional water-based parts washers provide a better work environment as they reduce the volatile organic compound emissions and their associated odors. They are less likely to cause skin problems such as dermatitis in workers. Aqueous parts washers must be chosen carefully and operated sensibly to derive maximum use.
