A cost-effective, eco-friendly alternative to traditional rust removal, Interplus 4103 Clean Cons is a concentrated fluid, excellent for cleaning closed systems or the inside of pipes.
The new Interplus 4100 range provides the perfect solution for surface preparation and the removal of corrosion damage, calcium, salts, humus and magnetite from stainless steel and aluminum structures. The result is a quick, cost-effective and eco-friendly alternative to sandblasting, acid washing or high-pressure water blasting.
Many different environments can create challenging conditions for metal substrates, causing corrosion and a wide range of surface imperfections. These imperfections can be equally challenging to remove, as these substrates are often hard to reach and non-bio-degradable chemicals cannot be used. The Interplus 4100 range has the answer to convenient and cost-effective surface preparation, with the following features and benefits:
- Easy and time-saving application via normal high-pressure pump
- Provides gel and liquid-based solutions suitable for a range of surfaces
- Can be used in offshore environments and drinking water systems
- Suitable for steel, stainless steel, aluminum, plastic and polyester substrates
The full range is compliant with HOCNF (Harmonised Offshore Chemical Notification Format) and contains only ingredients from the PLONOR (Pose Little Or No Risk) list of environmentally safe chemicals. Each product is 100% biodegradable and 100% toxin free, making for a safe and sustainable solution to rust removal and surface preparation.

Surface Preperation
Prior to application of Interplus 4103 Clean Cons, any loose rust deposits should be removed to aid penetration of the product. Surfaces not to be treated should be masked and protected with polyethylene. A strong ground sheet should be used to contain residue, product and rinse water. For further details, contact our technical team on 0113 2455450 (option 2) or send a message to [email protected].
Galvanised surfaces can be affected by Interplus 4103 Clean Cons; these areas should be covered. Use of Interplus 4103 Clean Cons on GRP will cause discoloration of the surface.
Oil or grease should be removed in accordance with SSPC-SP1 solvent cleaning.
Application Conditions
Optimal working temperature range is 8 - 50°C (46 - 122°F). Interplus 4103 Clean Cons can be used at temperatures as low as 2°C (36°F) and a maximum of 60°C (140°F), but a lower level of performance should be expected.
For best results, it is advised to suitably cover the application area to reduce the effect of wind, rain and intense sunlight.
Application
Data | ||
---|---|---|
Mixing | Mixing should not normally be required but if separation has occurred the product should be hand mixed until homogeneous. | |
Mix Ratio | Depends on the level of contamination present: | |
High contamination 50% water | ||
Medium contamination 70% water | ||
Low contamination 90% water | ||
It is recommended that a small area is tested in order to confirm the level of dilution required. | ||
Thinner | Clean potable water | |
Cleaner | Clean potable water | |
Work Stoppages | Product containers should be resealed to prevent drying out of the product. | |
Clean Up | Clean equipment immediately after use with water. Dispose of washing in accordance with local environmental legislation. Neutralising and dilution with water may be required to meet local waste or sewage disposal requirements. Spills should be contained and disposed of under the same requirements. | |
Removal | High pressure water wash and/or steam cleaners improve removal rates and reduce water usage. Pressure greater than 4000 p.s.i. is advised for large areas and to aid removal of alkaline salts from steel substrates. Cleaned surfaces should be repainted as quickly as possible to prevent reoxidation. |
Product Characteristics
Interplus 4103 Clean Cons will take 4 - 24 hours to take effect. This is dependent on the type of surface and on the temperature.
When applying Interplus 4103 Clean Cons in confined spaces ensure adequate ventilation.
Interplus 4103 Clean Cons must be protected from freezing at all times during storage.
Systems Compatibility
To ensure good overcoating of approved maintenance primers, it is important that the treated surface is free from all residue contamination and a thorough rinsing and wash down has been undertaken.
The surface should be clean and dry prior to overcoating with approved primers.
The following primers are approved for application direct to Interplus 4103 Clean Cons treated surfaces:
