What is an Aluminium Cleaner?
An aluminium cleaner is a chemical product designed to remove dirt, grease, oxidation, stains, water spots, and corrosion from aluminium surfaces while restoring their appearance.
* How It Works
- Aluminium cleaners work by:
Dissolving grease and oil.
Removing the dull oxide layer that naturally forms on aluminium.
Lifting stains, rust marks (from other metals), and mineral deposits.
Brightening the metal surface.
* Types of Aluminium Cleaners
1) Acidic cleaners
Contain acids such as phosphoric or hydrofluoric acid (in some industrial products).
Very effective for heavy oxidation and stains.
Require careful handling because they can be hazardous.
2) Alkaline cleaners
Remove oils, grease, and light dirt.
Often used as a pre-cleaning step before painting or coating.
3) Neutral or pH-balanced cleaners
Safe for regular cleaning.
Suitable for household and polished aluminium surfaces.
