WHAT ARE CLEANERS AND DEGREASERS?

A degreaser is simply a chemical product that removes grease. Some all-purpose cleaners may also remove grease. In general, all degreasers are cleaners, but not all cleaners are degreasers.

Cleaning chemicals are formulated to be acidic, basic (alkaline), or neutral. A solution's pH level ranges from 0 to 14 on the pH scale. A lower pH means the cleaner is more acidic, and a higher pH indicates it is more basic. Solutions with a pH level of around 7 are considered neutral.

Grease and organic oils are best removed with basic cleaners, since products with higher pH levels can more easily break down the oil, grease, and lubricants found in your garage. Heavy-duty degreasers often contain petroleum-based ingredients or a natural solvent like citrus to help break down and cut through grease.

Explore our wide selection of automotive cleaners and degreasers, designed to remove grease, oils, cutting fluids, corrosion inhibitors, handling soils, fingerprints, and other contaminants.

Keep your car, pickup truck, or SUV clean by shopping the best cleaners and degreasers on the NAPA website or visiting the NAPA Auto Parts store nearest you.

DIFFERENT TYPES OF AUTOMOTIVE CLEANERS AND DEGREASERS

With so many different types of cleaners and degreasers on the market, it's important to understand their various uses before making a purchase.

Types of car cleaners:

Car cleaners are used to extend the life of mechanical components to prevent premature parts failure and keep you safe on the road.

Types of car degreasers:

All-purpose degreasers are used for the bodywork of your car or to remove dirt and grime on vehicle surfaces, including even the toughest stains.

Engine degreasers are equally important, as the engine is often dirtier than the bodywork. An engine degreaser will safely remove grease, grime, and all traces of dirt from the centrepiece of your car.

If you're unsure of what product to buy, ask one of our experts for advice on choosing the perfect solution for your car's needs. Using the right cleaner/degreaser will not only help you get the final results you want, but also ensure your car lasts longer.

Looking for cleaners and degreasers for your boat or RV? Whether you're cleaning the engine, pumps, or bilge or aiming to make the interior and exterior look like new again, NAPA has what you need.

WHEN TO USE A CLEANER OR DEGREASER:

There are countless cleaning products available to choose from, which begs an important question: How often do you need to clean your car, truck, or SUV?

We suggest detailing your vehicle every two weeks. The interval for mechanical parts maintenance largely depends on the particular components of your automobile. You don't need to be a mechanic to know how often to take care of your car. Visit your local NAPA Auto Parts location to take advantage of our experts' advice and know-how.
