HARTFORD, Conn. — Permatex has added a revolutionary automotive first to its #1 selling Fast Orange Hand Cleaner line with the addition of Permatex Fast Orange Grease X Mechanic’s Laundry Detergent. This innovative, professional-grade laundry detergent is designed specifically for automotive technicians and serious do-it-yourselfers. It is specially formulated to remove automotive grease, stains, and odors from technicians work clothes.

Professional mechanics and do-it-yourselfers regularly complain about the difficulty of removing stains and odors from their clothes. An additional problem they face is the residue of grease that can be left in the washing machine after washing heavily grease-stained clothes. This grease residue can end up on clothes washed in the next cycle.

Fast Orange Grease X eliminates these problems because it is designed to effectively clean clothing that has been soiled by automotive grease, oil, tar, greasy dirt and automotive fluids. It features a built in pre-treater that can remove up to 99 percent of automotive stains and odors. In addition, its proprietary soil release/antistatic agent actually helps repel future soils and keeps the washing machine clear of residual grease.

Fast Orange Grease X powers through stains and effectively eliminates odors from fuel, oil, and auto fluids. It also leaves a pleasant citrus aroma and helps repel future stains.

Sean Lyon, Director of Marketing and Product Management at Permatex, noted, “We are extremely excited about this revolutionary cleaning breakthrough. Through our market research, we learned first hand how frustrating it was for professional technicians to get their clothes clean. Our innovations team came up with an incredible solution, and we’re now able to bring it to the market for the first time.”
