Interflon LeafGuard

Interflon LeafGuard is a powerful biodegradable cleaner / deoxidiser. Interflon LeafGuard has been developed to quickly remove organic leaf contamination and oxidization from the rail head, it reduces adhesion issues and risk of wrong side track circuit failures. The biodegradable cleaner has a quick activation time (1-2 minutes) no need to rinse with water or wipe as the product self-cleans and leaves a micro layer which re activates with rainwater and moisture, the surface stays cleaner for longer. Interflon LeafGuard does not damage steel rubber plastic or reflective coatings so is safe around cabling and insulators / pads and speed board signage. The biodegradable cleaner reduces the time it takes to clean the railhead and therefore reduce degraded working and delays to passenger travel. It allows seasonal teams to restore track circuits which have failed wrong side and therefore reduce the risk of further safety events.

Use instructions
Steel rail surface
Apply directly and allow it to work for 60 seconds (1-3 minutes depending on contamination). A longer contact time will result in a better cleaning action. No need to remove as the train wheel will disperse any remaining product on contact, but can be removed using a rag.
Speed boards and signage
Apply directly and allow it to work for 60 seconds (1-5 minutes depending on contamination). A longer contact time will result is a better cleaning action with a clean, damp cloth then wipe with a dry cloth. Do not mix different cleaners. Avoid inhaling sprayed product.
