Commercial Degreasers for Asphalt & Tar Removal

Yes. Citrus-based formulas like Super Orange Degreaser are explicitly non-corrosive and safe for all metals. They remove tar and asphalt deposits from engines, motors, and heavy construction equipment without damaging metal surfaces, making them suitable for repeated use in industrial and automotive maintenance environments.

Super Orange Degreaser is available in 4x1 gallon cases, 5-gallon pails, and 55-gallon drums for bulk applications, as well as 12x20 oz aerosol cans per case for spot treatment. Purchasing directly from Zircon Industries offers 30–50% savings compared to retail pricing, making bulk formats cost-effective for high-volume operations.

Yes. Super Orange Degreaser is formulated for use on concrete and masonry surfaces in addition to metal equipment. Its heavy flushing action penetrates and lifts tar, asphalt, oil, and grease from porous surfaces like driveways and garage floors without leaving a harmful or toxic residue after air-drying.

Yes. Super Orange Degreaser is completely biodegradable, made from 100% natural citrus terpene oil, and contains no petroleum distillates or ozone-depleting chemicals. It produces no harsh or toxic fumes, making it safe for operator use in enclosed or outdoor environments and compliant with environmentally conscious job site requirements.

Absolutely. Super Orange Degreaser is specifically listed for construction and road equipment degreasing as well as farm equipment maintenance. Its high emulsification power handles the heavy bituminous buildup common on pavers, compactors, graders, and agricultural machinery, reducing cleaning time and protecting equipment components from corrosive residue.

Citrus-based degreasers use d'Limonene — a natural terpene extracted from citrus peels — combined with mixed ionic emulsifiers in a micro-micellular formula. This technology surrounds and breaks apart tar and asphalt molecules at a microscopic level, allowing them to be flushed away with water. The result is thorough removal without the use of harsh petroleum solvents or toxic chemicals.
