Advanced Wax Residue Removal Process for Industrial Applications


Effective wax residue removal is essential in industrial cleaning processes, and INVENTEC offers advanced wax removers and compound removers tailored to ensure flawless cleaning of delicate and complex components across various cleaning methods.

Wax residue removal is a critical step in high-precision industrial cleaning applications, particularly in sectors like electronics manufacturing, aerospace, automotive, and medical device production. Residual wax can compromise component functionality, hinder adhesion, or create insulation issues. That’s why using the right wax remover or wax residue remover is vital to maintain quality and reliability in your production processes.

INVENTEC offers a specialized portfolio of wax removal solutions, including advanced compound remover technologies, to ensure surfaces are thoroughly cleaned without damaging sensitive parts. Our solutions support various cleaning environments including co-solvent systems, vapor-phase cleaning, and aqueous immersion methods.


Co-Solvent Process for Efficient Wax Residue Removal

One of the most efficient techniques for wax residue removal is the co-solvent cleaning process, combining a cleaning agent with a rinsing solvent. TOPKLEAN MC 1007 is a powerful wax residue remover engineered for dissolving stubborn wax contaminants without harming delicate substrates. It ensures deep penetration into complex geometries and is particularly effective in high-end electronics and precision parts cleaning.


Mono-Solvent Vapor Phase Cleaning with Powerful Wax Removers

The mono-solvent process, also known as vapor-phase cleaning, offers another high-performance method for wax removal. This technique uses a single solvent for both cleaning and rinsing, reducing process complexity while delivering excellent results. INVENTEC recommends:

  • PROMOSOLV 70 – High-solvency wax residue remover for intricate parts.
  • 3M Novec 73DE – Suitable for sensitive components requiring a non-aggressive wax remover.

These compound removers are ideal for removing wax and similar contaminants from parts with complex geometries, such as PCBAs, sensors, or micro-electronics.


Aqueous Immersion Cleaning: Eco-Friendly Wax Residue Removal

For water-based industrial cleaning, PROMOCLEAN DEWAX+ is INVENTEC’s go-to wax remover in aqueous immersion cleaning systems. This solution is optimized to deliver superior performance with minimal environmental impact. It effectively breaks down wax residue during immersion, especially when combined with heat, ultrasonics, or mechanical agitation.

Manual Wax Residue Removal for Small-Scale Operations

For smaller batches or spot-cleaning tasks, INVENTEC also offers manual wax residue removal solutions. These include low-temperature dip tanks, spray applications, or simple pour-over methods using our specialized compound remover products tailored for precision and safety.
