Q: What is Shizumari Multi-purpose Cleaner (RTU) 12.7?
A: It is a highly alkaline electrolyzed water cleaner generated by the electrolysis of water. Due to its alkalinity, it has a very strong cleaning power, especially against oils and proteins. Oil stains undergo partial hydrolysis when exposed to an alkaline solution, which results in the creation of surfactants.
This means that Shizumari Multi-purpose Cleaner (RTU) has high cleaning power without the need for added surfactants or chemicals.
Q: What is electrolyzed water?
A: Electrolyzed water is a solution generated when ions move through water as a current is passed through it. Shizumari Multi-purpose Cleaner (RTU) uses the alkaline solution created at the cathode as a cleaner. Since normal water cannot conduct enough electricity for electrolysis, an electrolyte solution is added to facilitate the process.
Note: Electrolyte solution refers to an electrolysis auxiliary agent used to efficiently perform electrolysis of water. Potassium carbonate is used when producing Shizumari Multi-purpose Cleaner (RTU), but thanks to our proprietary technology, no components of the electrolysis auxiliary agent remain in the Shizumari Multi-purpose Cleaner (RTU).
Q: How does it remove stains?
A:Emulsification and dispersion action: The cleaner breaks down and disperses stains into smaller particles, making them easier to remove.
Saponification: It breaks down oils and fats into glycerin and fatty acids (saponification), which acts like a surfactant, helping to lift stains.
Penetration action: Electrolysis reduces the size of water molecule clusters, increasing their penetration ability. This allows the cleaner to get between the surface and the stain, lifting it away.
Separation action: Both the cleaning surface and the dirt are negatively charged, causing them to repel each other and helping to remove stains. This repulsion also prevents stains from re-adhering.
Q: What are its primary uses?
A: It excels at removing oil stains. It can be used for cleaning various surfaces such as kitchens, bathrooms, furniture, windows, and floors.
Q: What surfaces can it be used on?
A: It can be used on many surfaces, including glass, stainless steel, and plastic and so on.
Q: What materials should it not be used on?
A: Avoid using it on metals like aluminum, copper, or brass, as well as natural fibers like wool, silk, natural wood, and leather. These materials may discolor or corrode due to the strong alkalinity of the cleaner.
Q: How do I use it?
A: Use it in its undiluted form. Depending on the area you are cleaning, you can spray it, use a cloth, or soak the item.
Q: Is it safe to use on plastic products?
A: Yes, it is safe to use on plastic, but avoid leaving it on the surface for extended periods.
Q: Can I clean carpets with it?
A: Yes, it is effective for removing stains and dirt from carpets. However, it is recommended to test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid using it on wool or silk carpets.
Q: Does it have disinfecting properties? Can it remove mold?
A: While Shizumari Multi-purpose Cleaner (RTU) is not specifically designed as a disinfectant, it has strong cleaning power that effectively removes contaminants through ionization. As for mold, it can remove surface-level mold but is ineffective against mold with deep roots.
Q: Does it remove water stains or scale?
A：Shizumari Multi-purpose cleaner (RTU) is primarily effective against oil and protein-based stains. However, water stains or scale (deposits of minerals like calcium), being acidic in nature, can be difficult to remove with alkaline cleaners.
Water stains and scale are usually best removed using acidic cleaners or acidic solutions like vinegar.
While Shizumari Multi-purpose cleaner (RTU) is highly effective for oil and protein-based stains, it is recommended to use appropriate cleaners for these types of deposits.
Q: Is it environmentally friendly?
A: Yes. Shizumari Multi-purpose cleaner (RTU) does not use chemicals and breaks down naturally, making it an eco-friendly cleaner.
Q: Is it really safe to use?
A: Safety has been confirmed through third-party animal testing, but it is not intended for use on the human body. In case of accidental ingestion or contact with eyes, consult a specialist.
Q: Is it harmful to humans?
A: It is not harmful when used correctly, but care should be taken to avoid ingestion or contact with eyes.
Q: Is it safe for pets?
A: It is generally safe for pets when used as directed, but it should not be used as drinking water for them.
Q: Why does it feel slippery when it gets on my hands?
A: The slippery feeling occurs because the cleaner dissolves the natural oils on your skin. It is recommended to avoid direct contact as it removes skin oils. If it gets on your hands, it will dry and be fine, but it is best to wash your hands with water.
Q: Do I need to wear gloves when using it?
A: Generally, gloves are not required, but individuals with sensitive skin are advised to wear them.
Q: What is the shelf life, and how should I store it?
A: The shelf life is one year if unopened, and it should be used within six months after opening. Store it in a cool, well-ventilated place, away from direct sunlight.
Please store it out of the reach of children.
