Rig & Compressor Wash

Dirt, grease, oil and grime can be more than unsightly; they can be hazardous to workers and lead to equipment overheating and early failure.  Foamtech’s oilfield cleaners-degreasers are effective for cutting and removing dirt, grease, oil and grime from drilling rigs and equipment, heavy equipment and location equipment such as compressors and tanks.

Blue Stuff

Blue Stuff is a concentrated cleaner/degreaser which will remove light to moderate dirt, grease and oil.

Purpose:
Blue Stuff is used to clean floors, equipment, vehicles, machinery, etc.  Uses are numerous.  It can be used in pressure washing systems, too, in either hot or cold systems.  Blue Stuff is environmentally friendly.

The most common uses for Blue Stuff are to clean rigs, rig equipment and compressors.

Recommended Usage:
Recommended use depends upon the severity of the cleaning requirements.  Testing in your specific environment will determine proper dilution for your needs.  Typically, a 50:50 dilution with water works well in pressure washing systems when run through the proportioning valve on the pump.  If dirt, oil and grease are heavy, spray concentrate directly on equipment and let soak prior to power washing.

For vehicle hand washing, add a quarter to a half-cup of Blue Stuff to 2.5 gallons of water.  Wash and rinse normally.  A 50:50 water dilution in a spray bottle effectively removes bug residue from the bumper, grill and hood and removes brake dust and road grime from wheels and tires.

Availability:
Blue Stuff may be purchased in 5 gallon buckets, 5 gallon dense packs (J-Cans) or 55 gallon poly drums.  When packaged in buckets, the bucket is an additional charge.

Red Stuff – Strong Concentrate

The most common uses for Blue Stuff are to clean rigs, rig equipment and compressors.
