FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Frequently asked questions about Acid Machine Clean.
When should I use Acid Machine Clean instead of Machine Clean?
Use Acid Machine Clean when you're battling:
- Stubborn brake dust
- Heavy Buildup
- Rust stains
- Water spots
- Mineral deposits on wheels, paint, or trim
- Oxidation
- Brighten & Clean Chrome
If it looks like it’s been stuck there since 1997, Acid Machine Clean is your go-to. For general grime or bug guts, stick with Machine Clean.
Is Acid Machine Clean safe on aluminum?
Yes. Acid Machine Clean is safe on coated, painted, polished, and even raw or uncoated aluminum when used properly. Always dilute the product based on the aluminum type up to 5:1 (five parts water to one part product). If the surface turns white right after spraying, that means the mix is too strong and should be diluted further. Always spot test first,never let it dry, andrinse completely with water followed by soap and water.
Is it safe for all wheels and surfaces?
Nope. Spot test first. Don’t be reckless, always rinse quickly and never let it dry on the surface.
Does it contain Hydrofluoric Acid (HF)?
Absolutely not. That stuff is dangerous. Acid Machine Clean is strong but safe when used correctly. We formulated it to be effective without being sketchy.
Do I need to neutralize it after use?
Not required, but we highly recommend rinsing thoroughly and following up with a soap wash—especially on paint, emblems, or glass—to remove any residue and rebalance the pH.
Can I use it on chrome, powder coat, or clear coat?
Yes. That’s what it’s made for. Just spot test, and don’t let it dwell too long. Chrome may need a polish after if it’s been neglected.
What precautions should I take?
Important:
- Wear gloves and eye protection
- Don’t breathe it in
- Don’t let it dry
- Use in shade or on cool surfaces
- Rinse anything it touches — even by accident
- Spot test and dilute properly (up to 5:1)
- We’re not responsible for misuse — if you skip the directions and torch your wheels, that’s on you.
How do I clean Boat Pontoons without runoff into the water?
Acid Machine Clean is not safe to rinse directly into lakes, rivers, or any body of water. The runoff can harm marine life and ecosystems, so always clean your boat on land or in a controlled setting.
To safely clean above the waterline without runoff, use this controlled method:
Spray Acid Machine Clean directly onto a microfiber towel—not the boat. Buff it onto the surface in small sections, let it dwell for 15–30 seconds, then wipe off with a clean towel. Follow up with a damp towel and mild soap to neutralize any leftover product.
This gives you precision cleaning without risking environmental damage.
