Three sets of three pre-weighted aluminum coupons were soiled with their respective contaminants using a cotton swab. Each set of coupons were immersed into a beaker with Surface Cleanse 930 at a concentration of 5%, for 15 minutes at a temperature of 120° F. During this process, any noticeable soil removal was observed. Coupons were dried with a heat gun as well as with a manual wipe afterwards, to inhibit the cleaner creating visual damage to the substrates. After drying, final weights were recorded, and efficiency was calculated for each coupon cleaned.

Visually Surface Cleanse 930 did not generate much removal but did preform gravimetrically very similarly for all three soils. The subsequent step is to keep the time and temperature constant and introduce agitation in the form of ultrasonics.
