      How to use

        Soak or spray parts with LOCTITE® SF 7840 and wipe or rinse clean.

        Dilution levels wil vary depending upon the type and amount of substance being removed and the type of surface being cleaned. It is best to begin with a high concentration of LOCTITE® SF 7840 and progress to weaker solutions until the most economical level of effective cleaning is obtained.

        LOCTITE® SF 7840 may attack painted surfaces in concentrations with less than 20 parts water. Optimum performance occurs with stronger concentrations, dilution with warm water, agitation or scrubbing and extended surface contact.
