MIL-PRF-680,<br />

Type II or III<br />

Undiluted<br />

Apply with a brush, pad, or<br />

cloth and agitate, repeat<br />

until surface contaminants<br />

are removed from the surface<br />

or suspended in the solvent.<br />

If oily residue is<br />

acceptable, rinse with water<br />

and wipe dry with a clean<br />

cloth. If oily residue is not<br />

acceptable use the diluted<br />

cleaning compounds listed<br />

under the heavy soils section<br />

of this table.<br />

MIL-PRF-680 Type II or III,<br />

also known as Stoddard's Solvent<br />

or Dry Cleaning Solvent,<br />

can be used to clean a variety<br />

of soils, particularly oils,<br />

greases and hydraulic fluids.<br />

Type III has a flash point of<br />

over 200 °F.<br />

MIL-PRF-680 will leave a<br />

slight oily residue. This is<br />

desirable if flash-rusting protection<br />

is needed. If the part<br />

cleaned with MIL-PRF-680 is<br />

to be painted or surface bonding<br />

is to occur, wiping the<br />

affected surfaces with a lean<br />

cloth dampened with a nonpetroleum<br />

based cleaning<br />

compound, or solvent cleaner<br />

such as Isopropyl Alcohol TT-<br />

I-7<strong>35</strong> or Acetone O-A-51, is<br />

necessary.<br />

MIL-PRF-<br />

MIL-PRF-<br />

85570, Type I<br />

Should not be used in poorly<br />

ventilated areas or on painted<br />

lacquer surfaces, unpainted<br />

plastic or unpainted composite<br />

surfaces. After cleaning,<br />

the area must be thoroughly<br />

rinsed with water to prevent<br />

streaking or paint deterioration.<br />
