Product Highlights

AxxaWash™ KMS-220 is a mildly alkaline aqueous-based cleaner designed for the removal of light-duty hydrocarbon soils and particulates on multiple substrates. AxxaWash™ KMS-220 contains a flash-rust inhibitor and is suited to clean and prepare the metal surface for a long-term rust preventative, such as Zerust® Axxanol™ or Axxatec™ product lines. When using a long-term rust preventative, AxxaWash™ KMS-220 should be rinsed from the surface prior to application. In addition, AxxaWash™ KMS220 can be left on the metal surface as a dry-in-place cleaner and flashrust inhibitor. AxxaWash™ KMS-220 is conveniently offered as a liquid concentrate and may be diluted per the application. Speak with your Zerust®/Excor® sales representative to obtain your application-specific operator guide.
