AGAR DLX Citrus Degreaser 5L Powerful – for Heavy Grease Removal Australia

AGAR DLX Citrus Degreaser – 5L is a high-performance heavy-duty degreaser formulated for removing difficult oils, grease, gums, and adhesive residues from both hard and soft surfaces. The formulation blends natural citrus solvents with detergents that dissolve stubborn contamination and allow it to be washed away quickly.

This professional cleaning chemical is commonly used in automotive workshops, food preparation areas, print shops, factories, laundries, and maintenance departments. The citrus solvent system breaks down greasy soils efficiently while remaining biodegradable and environmentally preferable.

Because DLX is water-soluble, it rinses away easily without leaving an oily film or residue on surfaces. This makes it ideal for spot cleaning, degreasing machinery, removing chewing gum in retail spaces, and eliminating tar and adhesive marks on floors and equipment.

Supplied in a 5-litre container, the product provides an economical solution for professional cleaners, facility managers, and industrial maintenance teams across Australia.

DLX can be applied directly to surfaces by spraying, brushing, or wiping and is typically used neat (undiluted) for maximum effectiveness.

Technical Data

DLX is formulated with natural citrus solvents and detergents that dissolve oils, grease, gums and resins so they can be washed away effectively.

Safety Precautions

Because DLX is a solvent-based product, the following precautions are recommended:

• Avoid contact with eyes and skin

• Use chemical-resistant gloves if prolonged contact may occur

• Avoid inhaling vapours

• Use in well-ventilated areas

• Keep away from heat, sparks, or open flames

• Do not ingest the product

DLX is classified as a Class 3 flammable liquid (UN 1993), so ignition sources must be avoided during handling and storage.

Proper Storage Guidelines

To maintain safety and product performance:

• Store in the original sealed container

• Keep in a cool, dry and well-ventilated area

• Protect from heat, sparks and open flames

• Keep containers tightly closed when not in use

• Store away from oxidising chemicals and ignition sources

Proper storage helps maintain product stability and reduces evaporation of solvent components.

Water Hardness Compatibility

AGAR DLX Citrus Degreaser is primarily a solvent-based cleaner, so water hardness has minimal impact on its cleaning performance.

• Soft water: Product rinses away quickly and leaves no residue.

• Moderate water hardness: Maintains effective emulsification when rinsed.

• Hard water: Performance remains reliable as the product dissolves grease before rinsing.

Because the formula self-emulsifies in water, it rinses off effectively under most water conditions.

Storage, Maintenance & Operational Guidelines

Storage

• Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use.

• Store in a designated chemical storage area.

Maintenance

• Clean application equipment after use.

• Store away from food products.

Operational Use

1. Apply DLX directly to the contaminated surface.

2. Spray, brush, or wipe onto grease, gum, or adhesive residue.

3. Allow the product to penetrate for around 5 minutes.

4. Scrape or wipe off loosened material.

5. Rinse the surface with water.
