Trial Purpose:

To evaluate products for light oil removal.

Date Run:

11/14/2014

Experiment Procedure:

Preweighed stainless steel, granite, and wood coupons were coated with Vegetable Oil.The contaminated coupons were weighed again to determine the amount of soil added. Three coupons were placed into a Gardner Straight Line Washability unit. A Kimberly-Clark Wypal reinforced paper towel was attached to the cleaning sled and soaked with 1 spray of cleaning solution. Each coupon was sprayed once with the same cleaning solution. The cleaning unit was run for 20 cycles (~33 seconds). At the end of the cleaning, coupons were wiped once with a dry paper towel. Final weights were recorded, efficiencies were calculated and recorded.

Success Rating:

Results successful using TACT (time, agitation, concentration, and temperature, as well as rinsing and drying) and/or other cleaning chemistries examined.

Conclusion:

Force of Nature and Clorox exhibited similar levels of cleaning for the three substrates evaluated. Both were more consistent than the Formula 409 on the wood surface cleaning. When excluding the wood cleaning for the 409, all three products were comparable.
