FAQ

What is Grease Cutter used for?

Heavy-duty degreasing and cleaning of grease, oils, fats, grime, and carbonized deposits from commercial kitchen hoods, grills, equipment, floors, and walls in food service facilities.

Is it a concentrate or ready-to-use?

It is a concentrate requiring dilution in water at ratios from 1:25 (light duty) to 1:5 (heavy grease), with stronger concentrations possible for extreme cases.

What dilution ratio should I use?

Use 1:25 for light cleaning, 1:15 for medium-duty applications, and 1:5 for heavy grease removal. For extreme cases, a stronger concentration may be used.

What is the pH?

pH 13.0-14.0, providing strong alkaline degreasing action through potassium hydroxide saponification and 2-butoxyethanol butyl solvent penetration.

Is it food service approved?

Yes, it is USDA A4 authorized as a floor and wall cleaner for use in all food service areas including commercial and institutional kitchens.

What surfaces should I avoid?

Do not use on aluminum or painted surfaces as the strong alkaline formula and butyl solvent may damage or discolor these materials.

Why is hot water used for rinsing?

Hot water enhances the rinsing process by improving solubility of saponified grease and water-soluble residues, enabling more complete removal of degreasing byproducts.

Is it high-foaming?

Yes, the high-foaming formula clings to vertical surfaces, equipment, and grease deposits providing extended contact time for effective penetration and dissolution before rinsing.
