// TECHNICAL PROFILE & FORMULATION SCIENCE

Chemical Purpose & Action

Farm Soap TR-440 is the undisputed benchmark for agricultural machinery, civil earthmoving equipment, and heavy transport. Formulated with a proprietary blend of alkaline builders, wetting surfactants, natural citrus solvency, and water-softening agents. TR-440 actively breaks down micro-oxidised surface paint layers on weathered equipment, restoring deep luster while emulsifying caked clay, manure grease, and hydraulic oil.

Key Technical Advantages:

Paint-restoration technology micro-cleans faded surface oxidation

Integrated scale inhibitor protects Schedule 80 heating coils

Free-rinsing formulation leaves zero powdery streak marks

Fast-acting citrus solvency accelerates cold-water grease dissolution

Important Surface Restrictions & Metallurgy Cautions

This formulation is NOT suitable for direct application on: Polished Unlacquered Aluminium, Magnesium Alloy Components. Contact with sensitive unlacquered aluminium or galvanised coatings may cause permanent chemical etching or discoloration.
