How to Remove Industrial Adhesives & Sealants from Equipment & Tools
April 4, 2025
Industrial adhesives and sealants are designed to bond under extreme conditions and withstand heavy-duty use—but removing them can feel impossible when they end up on your tools, trucks, or work surfaces. Whether polyurethane sealants, epoxy adhesives, or heavy-duty construction glue, these substances cure quickly and resist traditional cleaning methods. Hardened adhesive buildup can affect performance, cause premature wear, and make future applications more difficult if left on equipment. That’s why using a powerful, industrial-strength solution that breaks down even the toughest residues is crucial—without damaging your equipment.
The Challenge of Removing Industrial Adhesives
Unlike standard adhesives, industrial-strength formulations are designed to be:
- Highly resistant to water and weather – Many adhesives and sealants are waterproof, making traditional cleaning methods ineffective.
- Heat and chemical resistance – High-performance adhesives are engineered to withstand extreme temperatures and solvents, making removal trickier.
- Strong and flexible – Many construction adhesives, such as polyurethanes and epoxies, remain rubbery or rock-hard after curing, requiring specialized cleaners to break them down.
To remove these materials safely and efficiently, you need an industrial-grade cleaner designed for heavy-duty adhesive breakdown—that’s where Bitu-Ox™ Bio-NT comes in.
