Alternatives for Harsh Chemicals in Industrial Cleaning

Acrastrip products can replace harsh chemicals in many different industrial cleaning applications. Take a look at the links below to learn more about specific applications. 

Industrial-Grade Acetone Replacement

Many environmentally friendly acetone substitutes are available, but not all are created equal. When you choose to replace acetone with high-performance AcraStrip or Polychem products, you can rest assured that you’ve chosen the best non-hazardous acetone replacement cleaners currently on the market.

MEK Replacement

MEK substitutes provide a safe and highly effective alternative to extremely hazardous chemicals, creating a safer workplace and protecting the environment. They are used to remove cured and uncured gel coats, glazes, varnishes and resins, as well as grease, foams, adhesives and more.

Methylene Chloride Replacement

Methylene chloride paint strippers are so hazardous that a ban was once proposed on their use, and retailers were urged by some to remove products containing dichloromethane from their shelves. Products like AcraStrip provide a safer alternative to methylene chloride paint removers and are proven to be effective at stripping paint and cured or uncured resins.
