GLUE CLEAN AND GLUE CLEAN SPECIAL
The
difficulty of removing glues and adhesive tape from floors is a well-known
problem that is mainly caused by the use of solvents and the method of
working which requires a large amount of labour.
The long work times derive from the fact that only small areas can be
cleaned at any one time due to the speed of evaporation of the solvents
and the need to remove the dissolved or disgregated layer of glue by hand.
The
use of traditional solvents for removing glue can be dangerous for people
and the environment as they are flammable, poisonous, irritate the skin
and eyes and pollute the environment (especially when oil-based products
or chlorates are used). It should also be considered that cleaning is
generally done in closed surroundings.
GLUE CLEAN
and GLUE CLEAN SPECIAL are not
dangerous for people or the environment. The two products differ only as
regards concentration and process times.
Apply
GLUE
CLEAN to the residues using a special piece of equipment
(produced
by IKADO) called GEL JET.
This only covers just the required parts with product, thereby
accelerating application times and eliminating product wastage.
After covering the area to clean, check it after a while to see if the
product has acted. Then remove the residues both mechanically (one run
with a washer-dryer) and manually with the help of a brush and water.
It should also be noted that the gel, due to its slow evaporation, makes
it easier to programme work and allows just one person to carry out
cleaning operations even on large surfaces.
The
attached photos show details of the process.
