‘Fast and effective cleaning, within a safe, enclosed booth producing exceptional results!’
Eclipse Colours Ltd produces specialist plastic colourants in the form of colour masterbatches for injection moulding, extrusion and rotational moulding industries.
‘NCH Pure Solve visited our site with their mobile demonstration unit. It proved a great success, with pigments and dyestuffs being VERY easily removed from our production components. We immediately booked a month’s trial and within minutes of this starting we had already decided to rent a unit going forward. The existing water based, manual unit was immediately unplugged and remained redundant until it was collected. The differences in the two methods, and units, were staggering. Cleaning that would have taken upwards of an hour in the old unit was completed within a couple of minutes. The unit really is that good! Fast and effective cleaning, within a safe, enclosed booth producing exceptional results! It has made a huge difference our processes, minimising downtime and liberating more production capacity. This coupled with an extremely professional approach from NCH Pure Solve has literally blasted away the competition!’

We as the engineering department would not consider using anything else for this task.
Northcot Brick are brick makers from Blockley, Moreton-in-Marsh, Gloucestershire.
‘We used a manual solvent based cleaner for cleaning machine and plant parts for inspection and re-assembly. We were having issues with health and safety and it was slow to clean greasy parts as we had to soak them overnight before we could use a solvent flow through brush to clean them.
The Torrent is easy and safe to use. It is much quicker to clean parts without the need to soak them overnight. We, as the engineering department, would not consider using anything else for this task and would gladly recommend the unit for anyone as we use it for probably the harshest tasks known.’
Tim Nicklin, Northcot Brick
It saves a lot of time, is safer to use and it is a fast and effective way of cleaning gearbox parts
The Gearbox Specialists are based in Bournemouth and Southampton and undertake repairs and full rebuilds on gearboxes for classic cars through to modern coupes.
‘We were using a solvent based manual cleaning tank to clean gearbox parts. The parts took a long time to clean. We were shown the Torrent and now have one installed. It saves a lot of time, is safer to use and it is a fast and effective way of cleaning gearbox parts. The results are impressive! The parts come out extremely clean now and that makes the job easier, when it comes to rebuilding a gearbox.’
Paul Atkinson and Paul Howard, The Gearbox Specialists
Using the Torrent has improved health and safety whilst cleaning.
Throbnozzle Engineering are based in Shoreham-by-Sea, Sussex and specialise in vintage engine and cylinder head refurbishment, notably Ford and Rootes engines from the 1960s.
‘We were using a manual solvent cleaner which worked well but the Torrent provided us with some extra benefits. In addition to being comparable at removing years of baked on oily dirt, the Torrent separates the operator from the smell whilst cleaning. Old engines have a strange odour. Torrent also stops the operator from being splashed by solvent which transfer the smell and contaminants to their overalls. Using the Torrent has improved health and safety whilst cleaning. When we have cleaned a really dirty part in the unit we just need to tap out the mesh filter to get rid of the muck so it does not end up in the cleaning fluid which it did with the solvent cleaner. This keeps our cleaning fluid cleaner for longer.’
Joe Allenby-Byrne, Throbnozzle Engineering Ltd
WOW what a difference, it now takes no time to clean up the components, plastic come up like new…
Electrostart are based in Daventry and remanufacture of starter motors and alternators.
‘Many of the units we process are usually covered in thick grease, oil, dirt and dust from years of use in cars, trucks and agricultural machinery. The only way to clean off the grot before bead blasting was to scrub with a brush and detergent and then drop into a bucket of brake cleaner. This was a very slow and ineffective process most of the time. We then saw the Torrent 500 on an episode of Wheeler Dealers and decided to give it ago. WOW what a difference, it now takes no time to clean up the components, plastic come up like new, aluminium brackets, rotors and stators etc come up really clean and reduce blasting time. This machine has saved us loads of time on jobs now and we wouldn’t be without it. The servicing is excellent too, a nice chap turns up every month to clean and service the machine.’
Andy, Electrostart
‘I would never use anything else after trying the Torrent 500’
Holmes and Quinn are an electric motor rewind company based in Fareham Hampshire.
‘We used a solvent based cleaner with a hand held brush that took a lot of time and effort to use. The Torrent 500 machine was introduced to us about a year ago. We are very happy with its very quick and effortless cleaning power. We can clean all the motor brackets, shafts and cooling fans.
The time to clean the parts has reduced from 15 minutes to 2-3 minutes max. I would never use anything else after trying the torrent 500. One very impressive machine for cleaning all the fat off kitchen extractor hoods and fans.’
Stephen Quinn, Holmes and Quinn
‘The Torrent took away any doubts we had about changing
equipment after being with one supplier so long.’
RJL Precision Engineering based in Fleet in Hampshire is a company dealing with high end customers in the Aerospace and Motorsport industry.
‘We need a high level finish on our products. We had been using a manual solvent washer for many years but we felt it had become both dated and dangerous for our staff to use. The Pure Solve parts cleaning team came up with a great overall solution – The Torrent. The Torrent took away any doubts we had about changing equipment after being with one supplier so long. It has saved us both time and money and improved the cleaning quality.’
Leanne Roughton, RJL Precision Engineering LtD
