For GROUND SHIPPING ONLY; chemicals CANNOT be AIR SHIPPED.
Details
Branson IS Industrial Strength Cleaning Concentrate is a biodegradable, phosphate-and caustic-free alkaline cleaner formulated for heavy-duty industrial use. Branson IS solution readily removes heavier greases, oils, and particulates, as well as drawing lubricants and light carbon deposits.
Applications include: removal of heavier soils from automotive, aircraft, and similar mechanical components, and cleaning prior to secondary finishing operations (including painting, plating and electrostatic coatings).
Branson IS is mixed with water in a concentration of 8 to 10% by volume and can be used at temperatures ranging from ambient to 180 degrees F (82 degrees C). Optimum cleaning performance is achieved at higher temperatures.

CAUTION
Do not use alcohol, gasoline, bleach, mineral acids, solutions with a flash point, semi-aqueous or combustible liquids in ultrasonic tanks, or you will void the warranty. Only use non-flammable solutions and water-based solutions.
SOLUTION TYPES
Water-based solutions can be either slightly acidic or alkaline. They include detergents, soaps and industrial cleaners designed to remove specific soils.
Acidic water-based solutions: remove rust, tarnish or scale, They range from mild solutions that remove tarnish, to concentrated, inhibited acidic solutions that remove investment plaster, milk-stone, zinc oxide and rust from steel and cast iron as well as smut and heat-treat scale from hardened steel.
Alkaline water-based solutions: remove oil, grease, coolants, waxes, including carbonates, silicates and caustics. These cause emulsifying action, which keeps soil from redepositing on the cleaned surface, and improves cleaning action in hard water.
Change the cleaning solution periodically. Cleaning solutions can become contaminated with suspended soil particles which coat the tank bottom. This coating dampens the ultrasonic action and reduces cleaning efficiency. Certain solutions will cavitate better than others.
Heat and cavitation increases the chemical activity of cleaning solutions. Some materials may be damaged by this stronger chemical action. When in doubt, test run samples of items to be cleaned.
Caustic solutions: used to remove rust from steels, metal alloy corrosion and a variety of tenacious soils.
SOLUTION AMOUNTS
Solution amounts may vary. The amount you use depends on the detergent and the type of soil to be removed. Follow instructions on the solution container and refer to the next tab's table for the effects of solutions on metals.
