Enviro Chemicals MultiKlean degreaser + spray and wipe

Truly the Swiss Army Knife of cleaning chemicals, MultiKlean from Enviro Chemicals is a unique and versatile water-based product which can be used for stain removal, degreasing, soot/carbon removal, surface spray and wipe, floor cleaning, pressure washing, steel cleaning, soaking, deoderising and much more!

What's In It?

The active ingredients of MultiKlean are Lauryl Alcohol Ethoxylate, Ethylene Glycol Butyl Ether, Potassium Hydroxide and Plant-based Anionic Surfactant and Non-ionic Surfactant

Lauryl Alcohol Ethoxylate is one of the most widely used ethoxylate compounds in manufacture of soaps, shampoos and detergents. The number of ethylene oxide molecules enhances foaming, wetting, solubility and degreasing properties. This makes Lauryl Alcohol Ethoxylate one of the most effective detergents.

Ethylene Glycol Butyl Ether is used as a solvent in surface coatings in paints, as a coupling agent in metal and household cleaners, as an intermediate in chemical production, and is also found in brake fluids and in printing ink. Adhesive for use in packaging, transporting, or holding food.

Potassium Hydroxide is an odorless, white or slightly yellow, flakey or lumpy solid which is often in a water solution. It is used in making soap, as an electrolyte in alkaline batteries and in electroplating, lithography, and paint and varnish removers.

Surfactants are complex chemicals with two "ends" per molecule, one that is hydrophilic (mixes with water) and one that is lipophilic (mixes with fat/oil). It acts as an agitator when mixed with both oil and water, which normally do not mix and sit in seperate layers, allowing the film that seperates them to become extremely thin, greatly increasing the surface area of both liquids by forming spherical micro-surfaces (bubbles). The action of forming, moving and bursting these tiny bubbles is a highly effective mechanism for lifting dust, soil, grease and other mess from surfaces.

How Does It Work?

Lauryl Alcohol Ethoxylate is a mild degreasing surfactant, an activator for other surfactants, a bonding agent for esters (scented alcohols), a pour-point reducer (makes liquids flow more easily at lower temperatures) and a low-foaming detergent. It's the glue that holds MultiKlean together!

Ethylene Glycol Butyl Ether is a solvent, meaning it breaks down and dissolves other chemicals including those found in scale, scum, gum, rust, soot and many other causes of stains or crusting.

Potassium Hydroxide is a relatively gentle soap agent, providing good general cleaning and disinfecting. It is highly water soluble, making it easy to dilute for varying cleaning duties.

Anionic Surfactants form large bubbles which are ideal for collecting dust and soil.

Non-ionic Surfactants form a fine cream which is better for seperating and lifting oils.

How To Use It

Degreasing : Dilute 1 part MultiKlean : 3 to 5 parts water. Apply MULTIKLEAN solution with spray. Leave to soak for 5 minutes and wipe off with scourer.

Heavy duty: 1 part MultiKlean : 10 to 15 parts water. Apply by spray or mop. Scrub with rotary machine or wipe off with scourer.

Light duty: 1 part MultiKlean : 30 to 50 parts water. Use hot or cold water to dilute if scrubbing, high pressure washing. Light silage on most washable surfaces. Soak cleaning cloths and metal parts or utensils.

Where To Use It

Surfaces: MultiKlean at its proper dilution is an excellent spray and wipe for most surfaces, leaving a fresh pine scent.

Floors: MultiKlean is an effective tile, stone, concrete and steel floor cleaner, and can be used with mops, applicators, scrubbers and pressure washers.

Glass: MultiKlean can effectively remove gum, grease, fingerprints and other marks from glass, however, it is not streak free. Should follow with a dedicated glass cleaner such as Enviro Solution.

Porcelain: MultiKlean is an excellent bleach-free stain remover for porcelain.

Metal: MultiKlean is perfect for removing stain/soot/crust from steel and chrome. Not recommended for aluminium.

Fabric: MultiKlean can be used as a spot clean or stain remover for cotton and most sythetic fabrics, not recommended for wool, silk or viscose fabric or clothing with skin contact.

Where NOT To Use It

Do not use MultiKlean at high concentrations in areas with low ventilation.

Usage with especially hard water (uncommon in Australia) may result in scummy residue from the anionic surfactant in MultiKlean breaking down.

Ethoxylates are acutely toxic to most fish species, MultiKlean is not recommended for cleaning the interior of aquariums.

MultiKlean is not a food-safe sanitiser, and shouldn't be used to clean surfaces or utensils meant for direct contact with food without rinsing first.

Whilst MultiKlean will not harm most plastics, the protective film it leaves behind once the alcohols dry may have an undesirable "tacky" feeling.

At high concentration, using MultiKlean on wooden floors may "clean" or remove the "stains" of the varnish, sealer or natural tannins from the boards.

Whilst the Ethoxylate and Ethylene compounds in MulitKlean are great for cleaning and polishing steel, they promote oxidation in aluminium, leaving it darkened or spotty.
