Recosol R55 (Shellite) DESCRIPTION A highly volatile hydrocarbon solvent that performs well in situations requiring a solvent that evaporates quickly with no residue. FEATURES Colourless solvent with a paraffinic, sweet odour Fast drying Can be used as a low residue contact cleaner A low flash point solvent that evaporates quickly A weak solvent that is unlikely to affect the surface of most materials Flammable hydrocarbon solvent primarily in metal cleaning Versatility – Recosol R55 can be included in any formulation where speed of evaporation is required and will combine well with other organic compounds. Solvency – Recosol R55 has high solvency of greases and oils. It can be used to clean surfaces prior to painting.
