MEK Cleaner 1 Gallon

Description

You’re prepping a Cessna 172 for annual inspection and notice dried fuel stains and adhesive residue on the wing root fairings—the kind that won’t budge with water or mild soap. MEK Cleaner in this 1-gallon size is a strong solvent designed to cut through stubborn grease, old sealant, and composite-bonded contaminants that accumulate in the hangar or on the ramp. It’s commonly used by maintenance technicians for degreasing engine compartments, cleaning windscreen adhesive, and removing overspray or protective coatings before re-sealing or painting.

Because MEK is a potent organic solvent, always check your aircraft’s technical manual or service bulletin before applying it to painted surfaces, composites, or plastics—some finishes or materials may be affected by prolonged exposure. Work in a well-ventilated area or outdoors, wear nitrile gloves and eye protection, and dispose of waste according to local hazardous-materials guidelines. A 1-gallon container provides ample supply for typical annual-inspection cleaning tasks or multiple light-duty degreasing projects in a small shop.
