FAQs

What is HOROTECH Spirit Based Rinse Fluid used for?

It is specifically designed for cleaning watches, clocks, and precision instruments to remove residue and ensure optimal performance.

Is this fluid safe for all types of plastics?

While designed for precision instruments, it's always recommended to test on a small, inconspicuous area first, as some plastics may react with spirit-based solutions.

How should I apply the rinse fluid?

Typically, it's used as a final rinse after a primary cleaning step. Application can involve dipping parts, using a fine brush, or a controlled spray in a suitable environment.

Does this fluid contain any harsh chemicals?

It is a spirit-based fluid designed for high purity, meaning it's formulated to be gentle on delicate instrument components while effectively removing residue.

What is the shelf life of the product?

When stored correctly in a sealed container away from heat and light, the fluid generally maintains its efficacy for an extended period. Refer to lot numbers or manufacturer recommendations for specific dating if available.

Can I use this to clean my eyeglasses?

This fluid is specifically formulated for watches, clocks, and instruments. It is not recommended for eyeglasses, as lens coatings may be affected.

What does 'spirit-based' mean in this context?

It indicates that the primary solvent is alcohol or a similar volatile organic compound, which allows for quick evaporation and effective removal of oils and residues without leaving a film.

Troubleshooting

Fluid leaves a faint haze after evaporation.

Ensure the instrument parts were thoroughly cleaned of gross contaminants prior to the final rinse. The fluid itself should evaporate cleanly. Ensure no external factors are introduced during the drying process.

Instrument is still not clean after use.

This fluid is a rinse aid. Ensure that a primary cleaning agent or process was used effectively before applying HOROTECH Rinse Fluid. For stubborn residue, a second rinse might be necessary.

Container seal is difficult to open.

Gently tap the lid or use a rubber gripper to assist in opening. Avoid using excessive force that could damage the container.
