Hotsy Detergents: Automatic Parts Washer Detergent

Hotsy automatic parts washer detergents are highly effective in cleaning parts and components in aqueous based cabinet washers. A variety of detergents remove greases, oil and grime from metal and plastic parts. You wouldn’t wash dishes in a dishwasher without dish soap, nor should you clean parts in an aqueous based washer without the proper soap. Defoamers reduce foam build-up without interfering with the cleaning. Contact your local Hotsy dealer to discuss which parts washer soap is perfect for your needs.

Hotsy Defoamer
This biodegradable defoamer is added to parts-washer cleaning solutions to reduce foam buildup. Hotsy Defoamer does not interfere with the detergent's normal cleaning ability. Can be used with TubMate Phosphatizer / Cleaner as it does not interfere with phosphatizing. Soap Strength: Low
