We all have cleaners in our homes for many things and electrical devices are no different. But did you know those cleaners can be used in different ways?
An electrical cleaner (often referred to as contact cleaner) is a versatile product that can be used for a variety of tasks around the house. Here are five surprising uses for contact cleaner:
- Carpeting or Upholstery
When it comes to cleaning carpets and upholstery, contact cleaner is an incredibly effective product. The key to its effectiveness lies in its ability to break down dirt and grime on a molecular level.
By doing so, the contact cleaner can quickly and easily remove deeply embedded dirt and stains. In addition, the cleaner’s powerful formula helps to prevent future build-up of dirt and grime.
- Kitchen Appliances
They are specially formulated to clean electrical appliances and remove built-up grime, dust, and grease. The cleaners contain surfactants, which break down the surface tension of the dirt and grime, making it easier to wipe away.
In addition, the cleaners typically contain lubricants that help to prevent future build-up and make it easier to clean the appliances. Most contact cleaners can be used on a variety of kitchen appliances, including ovens, microwaves, refrigerators, and dishwashers.
- Chrome Fixtures
Contact cleaner is a type of cleaner that is designed to remove dirt and grime from surfaces without damaging the surface itself. One of the most common uses for contact cleaners is cleaning chrome fixtures.
The active ingredient in contact cleaner, typically a solvent such as acetone or hexane, breaks down the oils and dirt that build up on chrome surfaces. This makes it easy to wipe away the grime, leaving behind a clean surface.
- Eliminate Soap Scum
Contact cleaner is a powerful cleaning agent that is commonly used to remove stubborn dirt and grime. One of its most popular uses is for eliminating soap scum. Soap scum is a film that forms on surfaces that have encountered soap. It is often difficult to remove without the use of harsh chemicals.
Contact cleaner works by dissolving the film and breaking down the dirt and grime that are trapped within it. This makes it an ideal product for cleaning areas that are prone to soap scum build-up, such as showers and sinks.
- Degreaser for Car Engine Parts
When it comes to degreasing engine parts, a contact cleaner is an essential tool. But how does it work? Contact cleaner is a highly effective degreaser because it contains solvents that quickly break down grease and grime.
When the contact cleaner is applied to a surface, the solvents penetrate the grease and grime, breaking them down into small pieces. The contact cleaner then evaporates, taking the broken-down grease and grime with it. This leaves behind a clean, residue-free surface.
