Agar DLX Citrus Degreaser 5L Fast Acting Solvent for Grease Oil and Gum Removal

Why Agar DLX Is Used for Removing Heavy Grease and Sticky Residues?

Agar DLX is a citrus based solvent degreaser formulated with natural terpene oils to dissolve grease, oil, chewing gum, tar, adhesives, and ink. It is designed for professional use where water based detergents are not effective. DLX breaks down stubborn residues quickly and then rinses cleanly with water, leaving no oily film behind. This makes it suitable for use across industrial, automotive, and commercial cleaning environments.

How Agar DLX Works to Dissolve Grease and Adhesives?

The formulation uses citrus terpene solvents to penetrate and loosen heavy soils such as oils, gums, and adhesives. Once the residue is released from the surface, it can be wiped or scraped away and rinsed off with water. When used correctly, DLX delivers strong cleaning performance without leaving residue behind.
