Q : Can I easily peel Z CLEAN off after screw removal?
A : Z CLEAN has a property of peeling readily with metal.

Q : What if I exceed the operating temperature?
A : It is considered that the base resin and/or the additive might be decomposed. Smoke might be emitted as well. Use Z CLEAN in the suitable temperature range.

Q : Is Z CLEAN recognized as a safe purging agent?
