Surface Cleaning and Rust Removal
ZERUST® field technicians know rust and corrosion is a complex process that has many factors. Sometimes clients already have corrosion that needs to be removed before we can treat and prevent the root issue. ZERUST® scientists have developed powerful solutions for the rework and recovery of metal items. ZERUST® offers a range of rust remover technologies, from pH-neutral products to more aggressive products that also inhibit flash corrosion on cleaned surfaces.
ZERUST® also supports metalworking processes with advanced surface cleaners and washes that remove residual contaminants and soils left by metalworking processes. We have solutions designed to work with VCI packaging systems for metal forming lines that need steps to neutralize acids or deactivate chlorides. Have contaminated or highly reactive metals? Use ZERUST® AxxaClean™ and AxxaWash™ products to control corrosion.

ZERUST® AxxaClean™ 2048
AxxaClean™ 2048 is a moderate-acting (nonhazardous) safe rust remover designed to eliminate medium rust and tarnish, even in the most hard-to-reach cracks and crevices. Additionally, it is mildly acidic (about 2.5 pH), similar to a soda drink that cleans and deoxidizes ferrous metals, brass, copper, and various alloys without leaving a gray residue.
ZERUST® AxxaClean™ 3048
AxxaClean™ 3048 is a rapid-acting industrial rust remover designed to eliminate heavy rust and tarnish, even in the most hard-to-reach cracks and crevices. Additionally, AxxaClean™ 3048 effectively cleans ferrous and yellow metals of rust and tarnish, and with a pH of around 1, it minimizes disposal concerns.
ZERUST® AxxaWash™ NW-10C
AxxaWash™ NW-10C is a mildly alkaline, water-based preservation cleaner with a wide range of operating temperatures. In addition to flash-rust inhibition, it also removes and deactivates sources of corrosion such as chlorides, oils, and contaminants.
ZERUST® AxxaVis™ PX-05-AN
AxxaVis™ PX-05-AN is a powder that, when added to rinse water, enables it to neutralize acids left by cleaning processes. Use to control flash corrosion on metals caused by acids left over from cleaning and rust removal treatments, such as ZERUST® AxxaClean™ rust removers.
