AIRCRAFT WINDSHIELD CARE
How many times have you been startled by an approaching airplane on the horizon only to realize after an embarrassing series of aerial maneuvers that the plane was a scratch or a speck of dirt on the windshield?. IT IS OBVIOUS THAT A CLEAN SCRATCH-FREE WINDSHIELD is essential to SAFE flying.

Aircraft windshields are made from acrylic plastic. Acrylic plastic is considerably stronger  than glass; it's face, however, is NOT as hard as glass. YOU MUST TAKE CARE WHEN CLEANING YOUR WINDSHIELD - Acrylic will scratch easily (never clean with a dry cloth). Acrylic will cloud, soften and craze when cleaned with ordinary glass cleaners or ordinary soaps. YOU MUST CLEAN YOUR WINDSHIELD WITH APPROVED PRODUCTS. IF YOUR CLEANER DOES NOT CARRY APPROVAL SPECIFICATIONS, DO NOT USE IT ON ANY ACRYLIC SURFACE.

Aircraft windshields are expensive to replace and if cleaned with the wrong cleaners will deteriorate so badly that replacement will be mandatory. When washing aircraft, great caution should be taken in using a detergent that will NOT harm the windshield. There are many approved products on the market, such as Davies "AERO-KLEEN".

All aircraft windshields should be cleaned and protected with an approved product such as Davies "KLEAR-TO-LAND". "KLEAR-TO-LAND" is a product that meets all approvals: MIL P5425 sheet acrylic plastic, Boeing Lexan 9600, MIL P2569OA stretched modified acrylic sheet, BMS-89-135, CSD-1 aircraft transparencies and sandwich corrosion.

"KLEAR-TO-LAND" will positively increase the pilot's visibility under all conditions. It forms a durable, invisible film that causes raindrops to bead up and blow away, instead of spreading and streaking on the windshield. This durable, invisible film remains effective for days and sometimes even weeks, depending on the environment. Works well with or without windshield wipers.

"KLEAR-TO-LAND" leaves a brilliant shining surface that will make slight scratches disappear with continued usage. "KLEAR-TO-LAND" is an anti-static cleaner that will resist finger marking, repel dust, clean and glaze in one application.
 

"KLEAR-TO-LAND" rates very high in slip qualities, thus many pilots use it on leading edges of aircraft and particularly during winter months, since the slip qualities of the product makes ice slip more readily. Creates a surface that ice will not stick to as easily. "KLEAR-TO-LAND" is a great aid on leading edges in winter time. The increased slip is also good in summer months for saving fuel - plus minimizing bug specks on the treated surface. 

"AERO-TECH WIPES" blends the micro-fiber cloth technology, with the special needs of the aircraft cleaning industry. Select synthetic materials are micro-processed, into durable fibers, re-combined into a strong, durable non-scratch fabric.

"AERO-KLEEN" Aircraft Detergent Concentrates
  • AERO-KLEEN #100

  • This formulation represents a breakthrough in detergent, solvent cleaning. Double detergent action is coupled with grease cutting solvents that effectively remove dirt and grime, but is mild on aircraft finishes. AERO-KLEEN #100 is highly concentrated and can be used at 1/2 to 3 fl. oz. per gallon of water (1 qt. to 1-1/2 gal. per 55 gal drum of water) and sprayed or brushed on. The cleaned aircraft is then thoroughly rinsed with water. At this concentration, the solution will have a pH of 8.0 - 8.5, depending on water conditions. Special corrosion inhibitors are added to protect polished aluminum surfaces.
  • AERO-KLEEN #200

  • This product is a heavy duty cleaner and pre-spotter designed to clean the most difficult aircraft surfaces, such as near engine exhausts. AERO-KLEEN #200 is used from 6 to 12oz. per gallon, depending on cleaning severity, and applied to soiled surfaces with a brush, then scrubbed and rinsed off. A good starting point for cleaning is 6oz. per gallon, followed by a thorough rinse with fresh water. The pH of a 1oz. per gallon dilution is 11.4.
    • AERO-KLEEN #400 D.O.T. Aircraft Detergent

    • The only aircraft detergent with  POSITIVE EMULSION - an emulsion so strong that oil will not redeposit (will not settle out on the surface before the job is finished) thus leaving a dull finish after washing. Cuts through exterior grime without dulling the finish.
      The patented technology of Davies AERO-KLEEN #400 brings new efficiency and economy to the cleaning of aircraft, buses, trains and other fleet vehicles where thorough maintenance is critical to safety and performance. It truly does a SUPERIOR CLEANING JOB.

      - U.S. PATENT 4264479  CANADA PATENT 1099609
      - CERTIFIED BY SCIENTIFIC MATERIAL INTERNATIONAL TO MEET SPECIFICATIONS OF BOEING AND AND AEROSPACE AMS.

    "AERO-PREP #500"
    AERO-PREP #500 has some rather remarkable characteristics. It is unexcelled for safety and for quickly removing exhaust stains as well as emulsifying and removing heavy grease and soil deposits before shampooing. It is a synergistic product that has many different applications such as removing and emulsifying grease from engines as well as removing grease from concrete floors. The versatility of AERO-PREP #500 makes it a very economical product. It may even be used for washing the entire aircraft in diluted form.
    AERO-PREP #500 is biodegradable, nonflammable, and non-toxic. Rinses free of film and residues.
    AERO-PREP #500 is manufactured primarily for the aircraft industry, however it has found it's way into many other types of industrial and institutional facilities due to it's versatility. It is used by automotive shops, fleet maintenance shops and garages to clean and remove oil and grease spills from concrete floors and bay areas. The product will clean and brighten white wall tires and also is used in cleaning vinyl car tops in dilute proportions.

    AIRCRAFT DE-ICING FLUIDS
    Davies DE-ICING FLUID TYPE 1 meets the latest SAE Type I and AMS 1428 specifications for aircraft ice de-icing. Propylene glycol is used in this product to ease health and environmental concerns. This formulation is a de-icing fluid, designed for application directly on ice coating aircraft surfaces.
    Davies DE-ICING FLUID TYPE IV meets the latest SAE Type II and AMS 1428 specifications for aircraft ice retardation. This formulation is an anti-icing fluid specifically thickened so as to remain on the wing and other aircraft externals to prevent ice from forming. Type IV products are not used for ice removal, but rather for icing prevention. Propylene glycol is used in this product to ease health and environmental concerns.

    "KLEAR TO LAND" Aircraft Windshield Cleaner
     
    For Aircraft Windshield Cleaning - always be sure to use a cleaner  made for acrylic plastic, such as DAVIES "KLEAR TO LAND". Spray on "KLEAR TO LAND" liberally then rub well with a clean dry cloth. Minor scratches will be greatly improved over a period of time. "KLEAR TO LAND" leaves an invisible film giving the windshield  much greater slip as well as being an ice deterrent during winter flying. Due to the "slip value" of "KLEAR TO LAND", pilots spray all leading edges of wings to obtain more slip and to be a great ice deterrent.

    "SAFE-MELT" Airport Runway De-Icer
     
    DAVIES "SAFE-MELT" represents all of the best technology in runway de-icing. "SAFE-MELT" features fast ice melting action, even at very low temperatures (-20%F). This product is non-corrosive, safe on the environment, and complies with ASME 1435 specs, as well as those of the FAA. SAFE-MELT contains no glycols, and is less slippery than glycol based runway de-icers. This product is ideal for keeping runways clean and safe without harming the environment. SAFE-MELT is highly effective as both a de-icing as well as anti-icing compound. Additional environmental properties are that SAFE-MELT has a safer, lower biological oxygen demand (BOD) than glycol based runway de-icers, and biodegrades at both warmer and low temperatures.
