Household Applications

TC-11 has thousands of uses around the house.

TC-11 is an excellent product for protecting tools. Wipe off the tool with a cloth and apply a thin film of TC-11 once a year.

TC-11 is very effective at lubricating hinges that squeak. Apply a small amount of TC-11 to the hinge, wait 20 minutes, and wipe off the excess TC-11. Repeat the process once a year.

TC-11 is an excellent product for lubricating locks. Apply a single drop of TC-11 to the lock mechanism with a precision applicator. Another method is to apply one small drop of TC-11 to the key and to insert the key into the lock. Do not over-lubricate the lock. Repeat the process once a year.

TC-11 can be used to restore frozen locks. Use the extension tube to inject a large amount of TC-11 into the lock mechanism. Place the lock in a vertical position, and allow the lock to drain overnight. It is a good idea to put a paper towel or a cloth under the lock, because the fluid that drains out of the lock is messy, to put it mildly.

TC-11 has an amazing ability to remove rust stains from fiberglass, porcelain, synthetic stone, and marble without harming the surface. Apply a small amount of TC-11 to the stained surface. Use a paper towel to remove the stain. The entire process takes only a few seconds.

TC-11 is remarkably effective at removing concrete that has set from metal tools, even if the concrete is years old. Apply a liberal amount of TC-11 to the tool and wipe it of with a cloth. The concrete will come off in a matter of seconds.

TC-11 is very effective for cleaning and lubricating small items such as window operating hardware, locks, door hardware, lawn mowers, hand tools, power tools, lawn tools, hinges and latches, and fasteners.

TC-11 is very effective at removing indelible ink from most surfaces without affecting the underlying surfaces. Apply a modest amount of TC-11 to the surface and wipe the surface with a paper towel. The entire process takes a matter of seconds.

TC-11 is very effective at removing adhesive residues. TC-11 removes the residue without affecting rubber, paint, or plastic the way some adhesive removal products do.

If the item you treat is exposed to rain, you don't have to worry about cleaning it. The rain does a great job. Otherwise, it is a good idea to hose down or wipe down the surface once a year. If you simply apply more TC-11, you are trapping the salt and dirt where you don't want it to be.
