Zerust® ICT®620-RR is a highly effective and safe rust remover that completely recovers rusty parts. With Zerust® ICT®620-RR, parts can be completely restored to rust-free condition, replacing labor-intensive, abrasive cleaning that damages surfaces and fails to remove rust from small gear teeth and other difficult-to-reach areas.
Zerust® ICT®620-RR works by bonding with iron to remove iron from iron oxide. The active ingredient reacts only with iron oxide and therefore, does not harm any other metals and non-metals. Simply soak rusty parts in ICT®620-RR and rinse with de-ionized water. Soak time depends on the degree of rust and varies from a few minutes to a full day.
APPLICATION EXAMPLES
RECOVER RUSTED PARTS, SUCH AS OVERSEAS SHIPMENTS, THAT WERE NOT PROTECTED WITH ZERUST® PACKAGING.
REMOVE “FLASH RUST” THAT FORMS ON WORK IN PROGRESS PARTS BEFORE THE NEXT PRODUCTION STEP, SUCH AS BEFORE PAINTING BUT IMMEDIATELY AFTER ABRASION CLEANING.
