Answer: Today's aqueous critical-cleaning detergents are blended for specific applications-substrate, degree of soil load, and cleaning process-these, are all important considerations when selecting a detergent. Here are a few questions to ask about a detergent brand to ensure that it meets your specific cleaning needs: Does it have good detergency on the types of soils that you need to remove? Is it free-rinsing? Will it rinse away without leaving interfering detergent residue? Is the detergent recommended for the desired cleaning method? How hazardous is it? Can it be disposed of easily? Is it environmentally friendly? How economical is it? To read more about selecting a detergent, request a copy of The Aqueous Cleaning Handbook, 4th Ed. by clicking here. (Detergent Selection)
