Mildew Remover for Aircraft Applications

Abstract

A patented uninhibited mildew remover was developed at the Naval Air Depot, Cherry Point, North Carolina. This mildew remover passed most of the critical performance tests found in the Navy and Army's cleaner specifications MIL-PRF-885570D and ADS-61A-PRF-2002, except for the titanium total immersion corrosion and sandwich corrosion tests. A new corrosion-inhibiting version of this remover was developed which passed all of the critical test requirements. Cleaning efficiency test results were satisfactory for both the uninhibited and new corrosion-inhibiting formulations.
