Three Aluminum coupons were assigned to each of 2 industrial soils; Hocut 759 oil and Phillips Multiplex FS 220 Grease. Each coupon was weighed using a gravimetric balance and had their initial weights recorded. Each coupon was then soiled with a pea sized amount of the appropriate soil using a swab to spread it across the surface of the coupons. Each coupon was weighed again and had their dirty weights recorded. The coupons were then immersed in a beaker of the Metalnox M6386 modified alcohol with a stir bar set to 100rpm for 5 minutes. Upon removal from the beaker, the coupons were allowed to air dry for 20 minutes before being weighed and having their final weights recorded.
The Metalnox M6386 modified alcohol was successful in removing the Hocut 795 oil but was unsuccessful in removing the Multiplex FS 220 Grease.
