CARDISOLV #STM
Air-Dry Solvent Degreaser
Slow Dry

Degreaser for all metal parts and other surfaces. Use full strength. Use at room temperature; do not heat. Not recommended for immersion of electric motors.

Immerse small parts; apply to large parts by brush, or spray, or re-circulating pump. Let soak and brush if needed. Use air hose to blow off dissolved oil and solvent.

Cardisolv #STM has a slow evaporation rate and is recommended for use in soak tanks and re-circulation tanks where solvent may be kept in tanks for long periods and changed only when saturated with removed oils. Cleaned parts are rust resistant for several days.

Removes petroleum-base oils and greases, cleans wet paint brushes, removes vegetable oils and animal fats, but is not as effective as other Cardinal solvents on carbon, asphalts, or metallic-soap lubricants.

Does not affect dry paint. Harmless to metals, textiles, glass, plexiglass, formica, porcelain, rubber, neoprene. May be used as a diluent with Cardinal emulsifiable solvents and with most non-emulsifiable solvents.
