                         New Product Announcement

                         Restore Blade & Bit Cleaner

We are delighted to introduce our new Restore Blade & Bit Cleaner.  Over the years we have had many requests from professionals and amateurs, for a fast working pitch and resin remover.  We have addressed this need and produced a water based, biodegradable product which works fast - very fast!  Unlike products which are hydrocarbon based there is no detrimental effect associated with the transfer of the cleaner to the timber being processed.  As many will know, there is a move away from solvent based paint systems to more environmentally friendly water based products.  The problem is that the presence of any hydrocarbon on the timber will spoil water based paint finishes.  For this reason we have gone down the route of producing a water based cleaner.  The product is available in 500ml plastic bottles supplied with a separate trigger head spray.  It can also be supplied in 25 litre kegs for industrial use.

There are at present only a few stockists who have supplies of this brand new product.  It can be purchased online from Workshop HeavenThe Turners Toolbox and Tilgear.  Or alternatively online from Shield Technology.biz For 25 litre kegs please contact Shield Technology directly.

Good Woodworking Magazine
test Restore Rust Remover Gel

In Issue 216 of Good Woodworking Magazine, Editor Andy King tests Restore Rust Remover Gel. To read the review click here to open the PDF file.

Restore Rust Remover faces its biggest challenge so far. A colleague brought in a Stanley No 5 plane that had been left out over winter in a shed that had partially collapsed. As you can see from the photograph below, the Plane looked as though it had been dragged up off the sea bed! However, the rust was completely removed in approximately 5 hours.  It should be pointed out that the photographs have NOT been digitally enhanced or altered in any way.

Restore Rust Remover Gel - reviewed in MEW Magazine Issue No. 151 P.56 - 'TRADE COUNTER'

Restore Rust Remover Gel - "this is great product and I will certainly be using it in the future. Restore Rust Remover Gel is highly recommended, it does what it says on the bottle and does it well" - David Clark, Editor of Model Engineer's Workshop magazine. Read the full review (in PDF format) by clicking here


"Over the years I have used many different brands and types of rust remover and none has been  completely satisfactory. Restore Rust Remover Gel on the other hand really works well, it is simple and safe to use, but the speed with which it removes rust sets it apart from other products - it has to be seen to be believed - an incredible product"  N. Woodworth

Restore Rust Remover Gel only removes rust - not sound metal, it is non-toxic, biodegradable and available in the same pack sizes as the liquid version and at the same prices.
