We would like to welcome you to the Chlor*Rid Salt Testing And Removal Store. We carry Chlor-Rid Industrial Cleaning Solution. Chlor*Rid is used for the removal of soluble salts from metals and other surface types. CHLOR*RID® is a liquid concentrate added to water and used as a wash solution to remove soluble salts from a variety of surfaces, including ferrous and non-ferrous metals, concrete, wood, plastics and others.

Chloride testing through methods both qualitative and quantitative is common, and the threshold for acceptable levels is lowering.
CHLOR*RID can satisfy the most aggressive chloride testing requirements, safely, simply and economically. It is effective on most surfaces, including steel, foam, concrete, and plastics.
CHLOR-RID does not interfere with adhesion of protective coatings.
CHLOR*RID is used both by private industry and federal/state public highway cleaning and coating projects, including the washing of concrete bridges, dams, tanks, and machinery, even in microbiological labs.
When your specification requirements require safe, reliable and consistent removal of soluble salt contamination, use CHLOR*RID.
Soluble salts are found on surfaces everywhere, just like chlorides, nitrates and sulfates. These soluble salts pull moisture directly from the air, which results in causing protective coatings to fail. These soluble salts can also be the cause of degradation of the substrate. If left unchecked, this salt contamination can corrode into deep pockets, making decontamination even more challenging and important. Lost productivity resulting from the failure of protective coatings results in high costs and can be hazardous.
Alternative methods of salt removal are not as cost effective as using CHLOR*RID. Abrasive blasting often requires multiple rounds of blasting. Some abrasives actually contain more salts and will deposit small amounts of soluble salts on the surface that you're trying to remove them from. Other methods may require heat or even the use of hazardous chemicals. Some methods even leave residues that will interfere with the adhesion of the protective coating, which contributes to coating failure.
CHLOR*RID is an organic bonding chemical blend which aids in the removal of chlorides, sulfates and surface reacted salts. Contains no volatile organic compounds (VOC’s), and is biodegradable.
CHLOR-RID is recommended for use in a maintenance wash solution to reduce corrosion and as part of surface preparation prior to application of primers or coatings on a variety of surfaces, including ferrous and non-ferrous metals, concrete, and others.
SURFACE PREPARATION: Best surface preparation yields the best results. If hydrocarbons are present, they should be removed prior to salt removal. Barrier materials, such as rust or scale or delaminated coatings, should be removed prior to salt removal. Sufficient mechanical force, such as pressure washing, wet abrasive blast, dry blast, or hand power tooling may be utilized for barrier materials to be removed as part of surface preparation procedures.
APPLICATION: CHLOR*RID can be introduced and applied by a variety of means. See Directions for hand cleaning, pressure washing, UHP waterjetting wet abrasive, and vapor/mist blasting methods. Contact CHLOR RID International, Inc. for other methods or technical support.
Before and after cleaning a small sample area (usually 25 Sq. Ft.), test the surface for contamination. Adjust travel speed, pressure or dilution as necessary and retest to assure desired cleanliness level is achieved. It is not necessary to use the entire contents. Partially filled containers should be closed tightly.
