Finixa has unveiled its new Silicone Remover and Surface Degreaser – Highly Concentrated (DGRHC), a next-generation cleaning solution engineered for professionals in automotive refinishing and industrial coating.
Developed to remove even the most persistent contaminants that can interfere with paint adhesion, this high-performance, water-based formula offers powerful cleaning while using noticeably less product. It effectively eliminates silicone, grease, wax, dust, swarf, fingerprints and other residues, providing a stronger result than standard degreasers while remaining gentle on sensitive surfaces.
Fully compatible with both waterborne and solvent-borne paint systems, DGRHC brings several workflow advantages. Its built-in anti-static properties neutralise static build-up caused by sanding, reducing dust attraction and ensuring a cleaner surface before painting—without the need for extra steps or equipment.

Key Benefits
• Safe for plastics and rubber components
• Ideal for bumpers, trim pieces and other synthetic parts
• Low VOC content with slow evaporation, enabling larger areas to be treated without premature drying
• Water-based composition for safer handling and reduced environmental impact
According to Finixa, the product delivers a consistently clean, streak-free finish, allowing technicians to work more efficiently while achieving superior end results. Application is simple with a spray system and suitable degreasing cloths, providing a fast and reliable process every time.
The Silicone Remover and Surface Degreaser Highly Concentrated (DGRHC) is available in 25-litre containers. Further details, technical data and availability can be obtained from local Finixa distributors or via www.emm.com.
