Selected User Reviews For CRC Electrical Parts Liquid Cleaner, 19 oz Aerosol Can
It performs admirably in the scenarios for which it was created. I've sprayed it into the solenoid contact points on the ranch's water pressure pump several times. Caveat- It's not a good idea to use it to clean a computer keyboard because it melts the rubber seals beneath the keys and then freezes everything together when it dries.
I didn't let the fact that it wasn't safe for plastic stop me from buying it. After all, the manufacturer's description stated that it was suitable for "delicate electrical parts," but made no mention of plastic. br>br>Until the can arrived, I had no idea what was in it. Most internet documents only discuss the severe long-term effects of tetrachloroethylene and carbon dioxide. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says it will target "certain types of plastics, rubber, and coatings. " " A vapor concentration of about 1% will kill a rat in minutes in the short term. The concentration of vapor in the atmosphere is 0. In less than 1% of the time, a worker will be rendered unconscious. br>br>As a result, use indoors was ruled out. I tested it outside on the inside of half a hollow plastic apple that I was using as a bug lure. It immediately dissolved the plastic. I only used a small amount of spray, and the apple dried fine. I wouldn't use it to degrease electrical parts under the hood if I didn't know what it was safe for. br>br>Recent changes: br>br> When I cleaned and lubricated drum brakes, this purchase paid off. I had better luck with this stuff than I had with penetrating oil to free a rusted brake hinge. br>br>A neighbor owns an antique car with broken windows. It was necessary to clean the switches in the driver's door. I warned him that my stuff could disintegrate his plastic switch body and vinyl interior. He claimed to have some secure items. Although his equipment worked, it left a stain on his vinyl door panel. It was easily cleaned with a cloth and some soapy water. br>br>Perchloroethylene was listed on the can. Tetrachloroethylene is also known as that. As a result, CRC Electrical Parts Liquid Cleaner is safe to use on some plastics and vinyl.
I was able to avoid having to purchase a new ECU and MAP sensor for my car as a result of this. When I get a DTC code on a car, I'll use these first, followed by Di- Electric lubricant. Strangely, there was no corrosion on the terminals that I could see, but what was there is no longer there!.
This is a good spray cleaner for pcbs and other electronic components. It effectively removes built-up gunk, but gravity is required to allow the gunk to drain. If you clean a power supply with it, I'd recommend that you let it dry for 24 hours just to make sure the product is evaporated 100% before plugging it in.
safe! NOT MADE OF PLASTIC Like the other CRC 'electrical cleaner' in the same container, it's completely safe. Take care; First and foremost, test!.
This is fantastic material. It's what I use to clean the switches on my Range Hood without having to take it apart. My Old Jeep's weatherproof wire connections are treated the same way. The Jeep will not start unless you do so.
For electric motors and switch boxes, this is a good parts cleaning fluid. Do not use on electronic devices like stereos or television sets. Cabinets made of plastic may be harmed by this solvent.
