Wenol Metal Polish
Wenol is widely used as cleaner and polish for electron microscope applications, ion beam systems, vacuum coating systems and general lab applications.
Wenol has been originally formulated for use on hard metal surfaces such as stainless steel in laboratory, production, automotive, and domestic settings.
It can be used to clean and polish hard metal parts for vacuum systems.
The carrier fluid dissolves in most hydrocarbons and is easily removed.
Wenol is petroleum based and does not contain silicones.
