“Here at AeroGleam WA we have been operating an aircraft detailing business in WA for the past 8 years. We struggled the first year to find aviation approved products that were both safe for use on aircraft and actually cleaned well. After many trial and errors we finally came across Zi-400. All the claims of it being a corrosion preventative seemed a bit far fetched, so I scrutinised Charles and asked for all the test data etc (A lot) to try and prove them wrong. Long story short, everything they claimed was 100% true, I even did my own testing on various aviation materials before using it on very expensive aircraft.
We’ve been exclusively using Zi-400 HD Aircraft Cleaner for the past 7 years without a single issue. We use it daily on RFDS pc12’s and as you can imagine that soot is hard to clean off, but Zi-400 with a foamer melts it off with ease. We use Zi-400 on everything from Cessna’s, all Pilatus, Beechcraft, Gulf Stream, Phenoms, basically every aircraft you can think of and it’s never let us down.
We offer corrosion control washing to our clients. With regular washing with Zi-400, corrosion rates have dramatically decreased, hearing this directly from engineers confirmed it to us that Zi-400 is the real deal and can save our clients a lot of money.
Whenever someone asks what cleaner to use, I only ever recommend Zi-400 as I know it’s the safest and easiest product to use.”
