For heavy-duty cleaning of gears, wheel wells, flaps, cowling & more.
CITRICUT GEL is a citrus-based wet wash used to clean heavy build-up soil conditions on the wheel wells and flap wells. It is specially designed to cling to vertical and overhead surfaces while providing increased wet-out time and penetrating stubborn dirt or caked-on grease.
Heavy-duty cleaner and degreaser in a gel form that clings to vertical and overhead surfaces.
Effective for cleaning multiple soil conditions such as dirt, carbon, grease, and lubricants.
Environmentally friendly and safe for operator use.
Conforms to airframe OEM standards and specifications.
Removing dried-on insects.
Bugs are unavoidable, especially at lower altitudes. The messy splatter they make at takeoff and landing sticks to the surface throughout the flight. The more insect collected, the more irregular the surface becomes. The more irregular the surface, the less smooth the flying, and choppy flying means lower fuel efficiency and, quite possibly, disastrous safety issues. That’s why it’s critical to have products specifically engineered to dissolve caked-on bugs!
Here are two solutions. For painted surfaces, dilute NUVITE’s CitriCut Concentrate as directed, spray on the target area, and agitate, and wipe-off bug residue. On polished metal surfaces, count on NuImage Cleaner & Debugger. Dried-on bugs are liquefied and removed with a cotton or flannel cloth.

I work on old vintage motorcycles, most of which have a fair amount of oil and grease on the engine and transmission parts. These gloves are so much better than the run of the mill cheapo's that can be bought about the same price. Yes, these will tear like any nitrile glove, but these are very, very durable and do a very nice job of standing up to gas, oils, and brake cleaner. I've yet to find any better than these for the price. No complaints whatsoever.
I took the chance of ordering expired Loctite 330. It was jelled up pretty good and generally unusable. It was my fault for trying it and never called the company to complain as I took the chance and that is on me. Order the good stuff.
Had used aviation Camguard for years. Added as well to each quart of oil added to my Lyc 540 SIA5 aerostar engines. Went past TBO with excellent compressions. Oil analysis always normal.
Also add to automobiles but too early to see a benefit.
