Why one cleaner isn't enough
A typical post-flight aircraft picks up four different kinds of contamination, and each needs different chemistry to remove safely. Oil and hydraulic residue on bellies and cowlings needs a degreaser, not a general cleaner. Bug strikes on leading edges and windscreens are protein-based and need an enzyme formula to break down without scrubbing, since scrubbing risks scratching paint and acrylic. Exhaust soot and carbon staining near the tail and fuselage is its own stubborn category. And once everything's spot-treated, the whole aircraft still needs a streak-free wipe-down to finish. Using the wrong product for the wrong job either doesn't fully work or risks damaging the surface – this kit gives you the right tool for each stage.
The cleaning routine
1. Degrease with Oil Delete
Mist Oil Delete directly onto oil-affected areas – bellies, cowlings, wherever oil or hydraulic fluid has collected – or apply it to a towel first for more control. Wipe off the oil, and repeat as needed for heavier buildup.
2. Remove bug strikes with Bug Blitz
Dilute 1 part Bug Blitz Concentrate with 10 parts water. Spray on leading edges and the windscreen, let it dwell briefly, then wipe away – the enzyme formula breaks down insect residue on contact, so there's no scrubbing.
3. Lift exhaust soot with Carbon Blitz
Dilute 1 part Carbon Blitz Concentrate with 10 parts water. Spray on soot and carbon staining near the exhaust and tail, let it dwell briefly, and wipe clean.
4. Finish and neutralize with Quick Turn
Mix Quick Turn Concentrate per the label ratio – one 32 oz bottle makes 80+ gallons of ready-to-use solution. Apply it to a damp microfiber towel and wipe down the full aircraft, following with a dry towel before it evaporates. This step also neutralizes the Bug Blitz and Carbon Blitz residue and leaves a streak-free, flight-ready finish, with no water or wash rack required.
FAQ
What's the dilution ratio for Bug Blitz and Carbon Blitz?
Both dilute at 1 part concentrate to 10 parts water.
Do I need to rinse with water afterward?
No. Quick Turn's waterless wipe-down finishes and neutralizes the other three cleaners without a hose or wash rack.
How much can one kit clean?
Quick Turn Concentrate alone makes over 80 gallons of ready-to-use solution, and the other three concentrates dilute just as far, so one kit covers many aircraft before you need more.
Is this safe for paint, polished metal, and windscreens?
Yes – all four formulas are designed for aircraft paint, polished metal, and acrylic windscreens when used as directed.
