KiurLab Tar & Bitumen Remover in a 20-litre pack dissolves tar, asphalt, bitumen and glue residue from paintwork, glass, rubber and plastic within seconds of application. The product is based on natural orange terpene and leaves a citrus scent rather than the strong solvent fumes traditional products often give off. The 20-litre size suits businesses with high consumption.
The slow evaporation means the product remains on the surface for several minutes, giving time to dissolve stubborn stains before rinsing or wiping down with a microfibre towel. This makes the product useful for everything from sticker residue to tar splashes on the bodywork. See microfibre towels for car care as a complement for wiping down.
What makes KiurLab Tar & Bitumen Remover a strong choice for professional vehicle care?
It combines high effectiveness against tar, asphalt, bitumen and glue with a safer composition based on natural orange terpene. This makes the product an option for businesses wanting to reduce exposure to traditional solvent-based cleaning agents without compromising on effectiveness. The 20-litre pack reduces the need for frequent refills in a workshop environment.
