FELCO - 981 Resin Remover Spray - VOC-Free Cleaning Solution

FELCO 981 Resin Remover Spray - VOC-Free Cleaning Solution

The FELCO 981 is a specialized cleaning agent designed to tackle one of the biggest challenges in tool maintenance: stubborn plant resin and sap. This VOC-free (Volatile Organic Compound) spray is formulated to dissolve the sticky "gum" that accumulates on blades after pruning resinous plants, conifers, or fruit trees. By keeping your blades clean with FELCO 981, you ensure that your tools maintain their precision and ease of movement, preventing the friction that can lead to hand fatigue and poor cut quality. Like its counterpart, the 980 lubricant, this spray is an environmentally responsible choice for professional and home use.

Best For Landscapers, orchardists, and foresters working with sap-heavy wood who need a powerful, eco-friendly cleaner to maintain optimal blade performance and hygiene.

Key Features

• Powerful Resin Dissolver: Specially engineered to break down and lift away hardened sap, resin, and plant juices that traditional lubricants cannot remove alone.

• VOC-Free and Biodegradable: An environmentally friendly formula that is safe for the user and the surrounding ecosystem, allowing for worry-free use in organic gardens and public parks.

• Improves Tool Hygiene: By removing organic residue, the spray helps reduce the risk of cross-contamination and the spread of diseases between different plants and trees.

• Maintains Cutting Efficiency: Regular cleaning prevents sap from dulling the "bite" of the teeth on saws or sticking the blades of secateurs together, ensuring every cut remains effortless.

• Simple "Spray and Wipe" Action: The easy-to-use pump spray allows for targeted application; simply spray onto the blades, let it sit for a few moments, and wipe away the dissolved residue.

Important Note on Availability & Shipping

Our warehouse serves as our office and logistics centre rather than a retail showroom. Because we ship from multiple locations and manage high-turnover stock, not all items are available for immediate pickup.

Lead Times:

• In-Stock Items: Usually ready for dispatch the same day.
• Supplier-Dependent Items: Can take up to 2 weeks to arrive.

While we strive for fast delivery, some timelines are subject to supplier availability and are beyond our control. We appreciate your patience as we source the best quality gear for your project.
