How to Clean Machinery and Tools with Citra Force

Grease, oil and grime build up fast on machinery and tools. If it is not removed regularly, it reduces performance, causes premature wear and makes maintenance harder than it needs to be. The challenge is finding a cleaner that is strong enough to cut through heavy contamination without damaging metal, paint or seals.

LANOTEC Citra Force is designed for exactly that. It uses a powerful citrus based formula to break down grime quickly while remaining safe on most surfaces. For workshops, job sites and home garages, it is one of the easiest ways to keep tools and machinery in top condition.

Why use a citrus based cleaner

Many industrial degreasers rely on harsh petroleum chemicals. These products are effective at dissolving grease, however they are often damaging to plastics, rubber and painted surfaces. They can also leave strong fumes that linger indoors.

LANOTEC Citra Force offers a safer and cleaner alternative. It provides high cleaning power without the harshness of petroleum solvents. It works fast and evaporates cleanly which makes it practical for both indoor and outdoor use.

Where Citra Force works best

Citra Force can be used on a wide range of workshop, mechanical and industrial surfaces, including:

Hand tools and power tools
Engines, mowers and small motors
Machinery housings and moving parts
Workshop benches and equipment
Chainsaws, hedge trimmers and gardening tools

If a surface has grease, grime or built up adhesive residue, Citra Force will lift it quickly.

How to use Citra Force effectively

Spray directly onto the surface. For stubborn build up let it sit for 30 to 60 seconds.
Agitate with a brush or cloth if needed. This helps break up heavy grime.
Rinse or wipe clean. The surface should be completely free of residue.
Protect the surface afterwards if required.
Tip: After cleaning tools or metal equipment, use LANOTEC GPX or LANOTEC MGX to protect them from moisture and rust.

When to use Citra Force in your maintenance routine

Quick clean ups can be done anytime. For heavily used equipment, it is smart to build Citra Force into your regular maintenance program. Cleaning first and then applying LANOTEC protection gives the best long term results.

The bottom line

Citra Force makes maintaining tools and machinery simple. It cuts through grease fast, is safe on most surfaces and leaves equipment ready to protect and store.
