Conkleen 204 - Heavy Duty - (5 GL Pail) (Item #0560-20)
Key Benefits
The Conkleen 204 Heavy Duty Cleaner in a 5-gallon pail delivers unmatched industrial-strength cleaning power in a size that is convenient for small to medium operations. It provides the same cleaning performance as the larger 55-gallon drum but in a container that is easier to transport, store, and handle. Its powerful formula is designed to tackle the toughest grease, oils, and soils, making it the perfect solution for businesses that need maximum cleaning efficiency without managing large bulk containers.
Why It Matters
Clean and safe workspaces are essential for productivity, safety, and professionalism. Conkleen 204 is formulated to remove heavy dirt and grime that ordinary cleaners cannot handle. While many businesses might not require massive bulk quantities, they still need access to professional-grade solutions. This 5-gallon option strikes the balance between performance and practicality. It minimizes product waste, helps reduce costs, and ensures that organizations can achieve deep cleaning results whenever needed without sacrificing portability.
Applications
- Workshops and auto garages where grease and oil spills are frequent
- Medium-sized commercial kitchens and food service facilities that demand effective degreasing
- Offices and corporate buildings with heavy floor traffic
- Schools, municipal buildings, and other institutions requiring janitorial support
- Light manufacturing areas and facilities needing reliable heavy-duty cleaning power
Installation Tips
For best results, dilute Conkleen 204 based on the level of soil and surface type. Lighter cleaning tasks will require a more diluted mixture, while stubborn, heavy grime may require a stronger concentration. Apply the solution using mop buckets, floor scrubbers, or sprayers depending on your facility’s needs. Always test a small hidden area before full use to ensure compatibility. Safety equipment, such as gloves and goggles, should be worn during application to protect skin and eyes.
Compatibility & Fit
This heavy-duty cleaning solution is safe for use on most hard, sealed surfaces including vinyl, sealed concrete, tile, and coated flooring. It is not recommended for untreated wood, delicate finishes, or specialty flooring without prior testing. Because it works well with both manual and machine cleaning equipment, it adapts easily to small janitorial tasks or larger-scale facility cleanings. Its flexibility makes it a must-have solution for maintenance teams across different industries.
Pro Tips
- Use a microfiber mop to achieve streak-free results on smooth surfaces.
- When cleaning larger areas, pair the solution with a floor scrubber machine to save time and labor.
- Alternate between Conkleen 204 for deep cleaning and a neutral daily cleaner for routine maintenance to extend floor life.
- Keep a laminated dilution chart accessible for staff to ensure consistent and safe mixing of the product.
Maintenance Best Practices
- Store the pail in a cool, dry location and away from direct sunlight or extreme heat.
- Always secure the lid tightly after each use to prevent contamination or evaporation.
- Follow local regulations when disposing of rinse water or leftover solution.
- Regularly train staff on safe handling and dilution practices to maintain efficiency and safety.
