Rising fuel costs have made it increasingly necessary that aircraft exteriors are maintained for optimum fuel efficiency. As aircraft fly and become dirty due to bugs, grease, carbon, and oil deposits, the drag coefficient increases and more fuel is burned. Maintaining a clean and smooth exterior can also help minimize metal corrosion, as well as locate leaks and local damage. Celeste’s two wet wash products (liquid concentrate and gel concentrate) incorporate the latest technology and offer a blend of benefits and functionality with excellent overall system economics not easily found in the industry today:
Contain no solvents
Environmentally friendly
Safe for workers
No unpleasant odor, non-irritating
Non-aggressive, non-corrosive
No flashpoint
Effective on a wide range of soils including:
Hydraulic fluid build up
Carbon build up
Grease/oil accumulation in wheel rims
Grease/oil deposit at engine exhaust
Bugs/organic compounds on leading wing edges and aircraft nose
General grime on exterior surfaces
Easy rinsability
Dilution easily adjustable depending on soil and cleaning level required. More effective at given dilution levels versus competitors.
Field tests have shown excellent effectiveness on both products, with the gel concentrate preferred for larger aircraft.

Pilots HQ had the best price on the pump needed to replace the one on my plane that was failing. It actually shipped ahead of schedule, arrived quickly to my IA who was ale to install it and get me back in the air in a timely manner. Great service and price.
I stopped in looking for some very specific AN bolts. The ladies up front went way out of their way to help me find the bolts I needed. Got my annual done that weekend thanks to Pilot HQ.
