There’s something about spring that causes us to want to clean, tidy things up, and invoke some semblance of order.  It’s not any different in the world of adhesives; a good clean can’t go without a powerful solvent.  At Chemical Concepts we carry a variety of solvents, from industry powerhouse Orange-Sol to options from Permabond, and our very own Chem-Set brand.

Solvents are mainly used for cleaning, degreasing and dissolving messes of every sort. Orange-Sol staked its claim to fame in playing a major part in the clean-up of the Alaskan oil spill, nearly three decades ago. Orange-Sol’s extremely powerful, completely safe solvent composition provides for numerous uses- from carpet stain removal to breaking down the toughest adhesives like hot melts, epoxies, and silicone adhesives.
