GT VG Max does not clean - it protects. Once dry it forms a water-beading film on metal that shields equipment during storage or transport in harsh surroundings.

According to the manufacturer, it is made from plant-derived raw materials - maize, beet and tree resin - as an alternative to fossil-derived ones. It suits bare and finished metals, indoors and out.

Reach for it at the end of a season or before equipment is despatched - it is protection for downtime, not for everyday work.

Equipment is cleaned differently from a surface: the deposit is thicker, and the substrate - metal, rubber, lacquer, seals - is often more sensitive than concrete.

  • Check the technical data for the materials the product does not attack.
  • Work on fresh or softened deposits. A product applied at the end of a shift works overnight and the deposit washes off in the morning.
  • Do not let the product dry on the part being cleaned.
  • Rinse thoroughly and dry metal parts before putting equipment away for any length of time.

According to the manufacturers' data, the products in this range are not classified as corrosive - at most as irritant. Even so, always wear gloves and eye protection.

Can I use these products on block paving?

No. These products are formulated for metal and equipment, not for absorbent mineral substrates. For cleaning surfaces, use the products in "Cleaning and restoration".

What is the difference between a preventive and a cleaning product?

When you use it. A preventive product goes on before the soiling, or right after work, so the deposit never bonds. A cleaning product dissolves a deposit that has already stuck. Some products, such as GTN, do both.

Does the product need neutralising after rinsing?

It depends on the product's chemistry. If it needs no neutralising, its description says so. If there is nothing on it, write to us before you start and we will tell you how to proceed.

Does the film have to be removed afterwards?

Not always - it depends on what happens to the parts next. If you need a clean surface before assembly, get in touch before treating the whole batch and we will help you plan it.

Is it suitable for equipment stored outdoors?

Yes - it protects metals stored both indoors and outdoors.

How much will you need?

Consumption depends on how absorbent the surface is and how you apply the product.

Write to us with the area and the type of surface - we will help you work out how much you need.
