The first step in Metal Restoration

Clean Bond was engineered to prepare drain pans for resurfacing. Boasting a multi-functional formula, it not only cleans and degreases but also inhibits flash rust and acts as a bonding agent. It's an essential pick for any metal restoration project.

Clean Bond is the first step in drain pan restoration

Clean Bond is a cleaner, degreaser, flash rust inhibitor, and an additional bonding agent.

Surface preparation is key for the optimal result of metal resurfacing.

Clean Bond was engineered to clean damaged, gunked up, and corroded HVAC drain pans. We want each restoration to be a success that will last for years. That's why we developed a cleaning product to tackle the job.

Preparing a damaged or corroded drain pan for resurfacing is hard work. Clean Bond makes the job easier.


With Clean Bond:

  • It's assured that even hard to reach areas are clean and ready for resurfacing
  • It makes the job easier by breaking up dirt and grime
  • Less scrubbing is needed to achieve the desired result
  • Cuts manpower and time invested

  • Clean Bond is more than just a cleaner:

  • It's a Molecular degreaser
  • Clean Bond bonds with residual oils and small particles.
  • When Clean Bond is rinsed, residual oils and small particles are washed down the drain along with it
  • Plus, if the surface is unable to be coated immediately after cleaning, Clean Bond also serves as a flash rust inhibitor, preventing surface rust from forming on fresh metals.

    Clean Bond prevents surface rust from forming for up to 3 days.

    Lastly, this diverse product also serves as an additional bonding agent for coatings to adhere to.

    Get the most out of resurfacing efforts by taking the proper steps. Clean with powerful, multi-functional Clean Bond.

    Available in quart or gallon sizes. One gallon cleans up to 400 sq ft.

    Clean Bond Instructions

      Cleaning Steps:

    1. Prepare surfaces as normal by removing loose or flaked rust and other debris.
    2. Mix Clean Bond at a 1 :9 ratio with water (one quart of Clean Bond to 9 quarts water).
    3. Spray mixture onto surfaces.
    4. Scrub the surfaces using a clean broom or scrub brush with an elongated handle to remove oils and small particles.
    5. Rinse thoroughly to flush lifted oils and particles down the drain
    6. Wet vac to remove pools of water

      Fresh Rust Prevention

    1. Apply concentrated Clean Bond to the surfaces to be coated with a pump-up sprayer. The concentrate delivers a laboratory developed bonding agent that molecularly bonds to the metal and has great affinity for Pancrete. This helps insure the utmost in bonding strength.
    2. One gallon covers about 400 square feet. Damp surfaces are what you are after. Spraying is quick and easy.
    3. Allow to sit for 10 to 15 minutes
    4. Rinse the surface
    5. Wet-vac or let dry
    6. Apply Pancrete within 5 days.
