ARDROX 2526

ARDROX 2526 is a non-flammable application type paint remover, designed to remove the more resistant types of polyurethane and epoxy surface coatings. The product contains chlorinated solvents and phenolic materials.

ARDROX 2526 readily removes air-cured polyurethane and epoxy paint schemes from aircraft skins, road transport vehicles and other painted surfaces. It is readily rinsed off with water, leaving a clean surface.

ARDROX 2526 is particularly economical for the removal of paint from large surfaces when the material is sprayed onto the surface. ARDROX 2526 is not suitable for removing paint from plastic materials, including glass fibre and carbon fibre reinforced laminates.

Method of use:

ARDROX 2526 is best applied by spray. It may also be applied by brush as a thick, even layer, care being taken not to leave any dry or thinly covered areas. The remover should remain in contact until the film is blistered over the whole surface. The bulk of the loosened paint can be removed with a wooden scraper, followed by rinsing with a jet of water. Alternatively, the whole may be removed in one operation using an ARDROX high pressure wash rig.
