Cleaning for Powder Coating
Q. Can Alconox assist with pre-powder coat cleaning?
A. Yes! To get the best powder coating results, you will need a residue free surface. The detergent you use will depend on the material being coated. The reduction in surface oxides greatly helps with adhesion. The surface is made more receptive to accepting the coating.

Pharmaceutical Cleaning: Rinsing in a Cleanroom
We are a large pharma company. We use Alconox detergent in an ISO 8 cleanroom that does not have a floor drain so rinsing in a cleanroom is a problem. We have a form, fill, seal machine with 2 pumps, tubing, and a hopper that have product contact. They are permanently installed. Can we rinse with tap water if we are sanitizing after the rinse? How much rinsing is required?
