SOLUWAX
> Aqueous Degreaser
Soluwax is a blend of surfactants and penetrants used as an immersion cleaner. It is used as part of the aqueous wax dissolving process or an aqueous degreasing process that replaces vapor degreasing and the use of chlorinated solvents. Soluwax is also used in the overall process of wheels and brakes.

DEWAXING PROCESS
1) Immerse components in hot wax to dissolve thick accumulations and leave a thin uniform residual film.
2) Immerse components in D-Solv, used neat, heated to 88-93°C (190-200°F) or approximately 15°C (27°F) above the melting point of the wax.
3) Rinse by immersion in water maintained at 49-54°C (120-130°F).
4) Components are immersed in a 10% solution of Soluwax, heated to 50-80°C (122-176°F).
5) Immerse in water maintained at 54-60°C (130-140°F).
6) Immerse components in a 3-4% solution of Corrotek, heated to 71-77°C (160-170°F), during 2-5 minutes, to absorb heat. Upon removal, parts will flash-dry. Ferrous surfaces will be protected during further in-shop processes.
DEGREASING PROCESS
Degreasing process: Follow steps 4 to 6.
