Maintenance Formula
Formulated using medium sized crystals and standard moisture control system, MoistureGuard™ 2, which absorbs moisture before it can create flow problems. Maintenance Formula is value priced and is appropriate for most cleaning and paint removal applications.
Maintenance Formula with SupraKleen™
Has all the features of Maintenance Formula with the added benefit of a patented rinse accelerator which improves cleaning capabilities, simplifies clean-up and provides a cleaner surface which is fundamental for maximizing coating performance.
Maintenance Formula XL
Formulated using the largest "XL" crystals and standard moisture control system, MoistureGuard™ 2, absorbing moisture before it can cause flow problems. The "XL" crystals are the most aggressive and ideal for most paint removal applications
Maintenance Formula XL with SupraKleen™
Performs like Maintenance Formula XL with the added benefit of a patented rinse accelerator, SupraKleen™. For use when a clean surface is required for repainting. Back to Top
Premium Formulas - Superior Flowability
The premium moisture control system, MoistureGuard™ 8, makes the Flow Formulas virtually waterproof before and during the blasting process. Abrasive flow problems due to humidity or poor air quality are virtually eliminated using these formulas. This moisture barrier is broken after delivery to the surface allowing the crystal to once again become water-soluble.

Flow Formula M™
Similar to Maintenance Formula in that it is made with our medium sized crystals, but contains our premium moisture control system, MoistureGuard™ 8.
Flow Formula XL™
Formulated using the largest "XL" crystals and the premium moisture control system, MoistureGuard™ 8. Designed for maximum productivity and superior flow in the presence of moisture. Back to Top
Profile Formulas
These formulations are significantly more aggressive, increasing productivity and capable of providing a white metal finish and 1.5-4.0 mil profile on steel.

Profile™ Formula XL
Manufactured with the "XL" crystals, the standard moisture control system and 10% 70 grit hard abrasive. It typically provides a 25% increase in productivity, white metal finish and 1.5- 2.0 mil profile on steel.
Profile™ Formula XL2+
This formula utilizes 20% 36 grit hard abrasive, providing a 3.0-4.0 mil profile on steel.Back to Top
Specialty Formulas

Anilox Roll Cleaning Formula
Utilizes the smallest sodium bicarbonate crystal with the premium moisture control system, providing a powerful yet gentle scouring action that cleans deep into anilox cells removing dry ink without any damage to delicate cell walls. A process when used with the specially engineered systems is capable of restoring original ink volume capacity.
Composite Formula
Utilizes our smallest sodium bicarbonate crystal with our premium moisture control system. For use on the most delicate substrates like graphite-epoxy or fiberglass to minimize the potential for damage and to provide a smooth surface finish.
Electronics Formula
Made with our smallest crystals and premium moisture control system. This formula receives a final screening just prior to being packaged to eliminate any large particles. It is designed specifically for micro-abrasive blasters and is packaged in a convenient 35# pail.
HydroFlex™ Formula XL
Designed specifically for use with pressure washers and the WADU Soluble Media injector. HydroFlex™ combines our largest crystals and standard moisture control system with our patented grease and oil removal technology which allows you to actually remove it rather than just move it around.
| Stainless steel coated with grease. | Cleaned with 3000 psi(204 bar) water; residue remains Water Test Beads Up | Cleaned with 3000 psi (204 bar) water & ARMEX HydroFlex® Formula XL Water Test Runs Off |
Turbine Formula
Formulated specifically to remove carbon and mineral deposits from gas, steam and direct combustion turbine blades. Ideal for removing burn marks on steel and stainless steel.
