Product Information
Full details
This SAS Maintenance Spray is for car and motorbike enthusiasts and professionals seeking a versatile solution for common maintenance tasks. Its key benefit is its multi-functional ability to lubricate, loosen rust, clean, degrease, and protect against corrosion. A potential caveat is its large can size for very small or infrequent tasks. The spray offers effective penetration for rusted parts, a silicone-free formula safe for paint shops, and moisture displacement to prevent rust.

FAQs
Is this spray safe to use on painted surfaces?
The SAS Maintenance Spray is generally safe for most painted surfaces when used as directed for cleaning or lubrication. However, it's always recommended to test on a small, inconspicuous area first, especially on older or delicate paint finishes. Avoid prolonged contact on painted surfaces if not intending to clean or protect.
Can I use this spray on rubber components like seals or tires?
Yes, the spray is designed to be safe for rubber components. It can be used to lubricate rubber seals or protect rubber parts from drying out. However, avoid excessive application on tires where it could reduce traction.
How long does the rust protection last?
The duration of rust protection depends on environmental conditions. In dry conditions, it can provide protection for an extended period. In highly humid or exposed environments, reapplication may be necessary periodically.
What does PTFE do in this spray?
PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) is added to reduce friction and wear. It creates a low-friction coating on treated surfaces, which helps parts move more smoothly and reduces wear over time, particularly in hinges, sliding mechanisms, or threads.
Is this product flammable?
As with most aerosol products, this spray contains propellants and is flammable. Keep it away from open flames, sparks, heat, and pilot lights. Do not smoke while using the product.
Can I use this to clean my car's engine?
Yes, the spray's cleaning and degreasing properties make it effective for cleaning engine components. Ensure the engine is cool and disconnected from the battery before application. Use in a well-ventilated area and wipe clean with a cloth afterward.
What is the total volume of the spray?
Each can contains 500ML of product.
Troubleshooting
Spray nozzle is blocked.
Remove the nozzle and soak it in warm water. Ensure the small aperture is clear. Alternatively, try using a fine needle to dislodge any debris. Ensure the extension tube is also clear.
Product not spraying effectively.
Ensure the can is shaken vigorously before use. Check if the can is empty. If using the extension tube, ensure it is properly seated on the nozzle.
Residue left on surface after application.
For cleaning and degreasing applications, ensure excess product is wiped away with a clean cloth after allowing it to work. For lubrication or protection, a light film is normal; wipe away any significant drips.
Weak penetration on heavily rusted parts.
Apply the spray generously to the rusted area and allow it to penetrate for a longer period (e.g., 15-30 minutes or more for severe cases) before attempting to loosen the parts. Reapplication may be necessary.
