Three pre weighed aluminum coupons were used per cleaner for a total of 9 coupons. The coupons were then soiled with a mixture of 1 teaspoon of AATCC synthetic soil and 50 mL of mineral oil by swabbing the mixture onto the bottom third of the coupons. The dirty weights of the coupons were then recorded. The coupons were then cleaned with their respective cleaners by a singular wipe of a paper towel wet with the correct cleaner. The coupons were then left to dry for 20 mins before the clean weights were recorded.
Dimethyl Carbonate, Ethyl Acetate, and the mixture of 62% Ethyl Acetate + 38% Dimethyl Carbonate all effectively removed the oil from the aluminum coupons with a singular manual wipe.
