The Versatility of Prepsol Cleaner as An All-Purpose Degreaser
The Versatility of Prepsol Cleaner
Engine degreasers like Prepsol have become a staple in garages and shops for good reason. Their powerful cleaning and degreasing abilities make them useful for far more than just engines. Prepsol's versatility makes it one of the most valuable cleaners to have on hand.
More Than Just An Engine Cleaner
Prepsol is well known as an engine degreaser. Spraying it directly onto dirty engine parts breaks down gunk and grime quickly and effectively. But what most people don't realize is that Prepsol can be used all over your motorcycle to cut through dirt, grease, and oil.
Wheels and tires get coated in grime from road debris. Over time this buildup can stain your rims and tires, not to mention affect your traction. Prepsol makes fast work of greasy wheel grime. Just spray it on and use a brush to scrub. Rinse and you'll reveal shiny rims and fresh rubber.
Mufflers and headers get nasty from exhaust soot and oil blow-by. A thorough coating of Prepsol followed by a rinse restores chrome and stainless mufflers to a gleaming finish.
Your bike's bodywork endures constant bombardment from insects, mud, chain lube splatter, and road grime. A periodic wipe down with Prepsol on a rag keeps the plastics and painted panels looking factory fresh.
Degrease Without Damage
Many harsh degreasers can damage surfaces and finishes. Prepsol's formula cleans thoroughly without etching plastic or harming paint. Use it liberally on any dirty bike surface you want to renew.
Prepsol is also safe on your skin. Greasy hand prints on the plastics and grimy fingerprints on the gauges are no match for a bit of Prepsol on a rag. You can scrub away without irritation or dryness.
Applications Beyond Motorcycles
The uses for Prepsol's excellent solvent properties extend beyond motorcycles. Prepsol can be used full strength or diluted as needed.
Clean paint brushes and equipment after oil based paints by soak ing in Prepsol. It will cut through acrylics, enamels, urethanes, and other paints and leave brushes ready for reuse.
Dilute Prepsol 50/50 and use it to clean concrete and porous tile. It powers through oil stains to leave garage floors and patios looking new.
Use it straight to prep surfaces before painting or refinishing. Wipe down unfinished wood with Prepsol to remove existing oils and open the grain.
Diluted Prepsol makes a great parts washer fluid for removing gunk from mechanical parts. Let them soak then rinse clean.
The Ideal Cleaner
Prepsol's ability to cut through grease, grime, and dirt makes it invaluable for detailing motorcycles. But its versatility extends far beyond. Keeping Prepsol on hand saves you from buying multiple cleaners. Its rugged formula cleans aggressively while remaining safe, and it can be diluted to suit any job.
Next time you need a serious degreasing, think beyond using Prepsol just for your engine. Discover all the ways it can quickly refresh your motorcycle and become your go-to cleaner for the shop and garage.
