The Benefits of Using Tube Wipes in Automotive Paint Sealer Preparation

Introduction

Contec’s CleanTube™ tubular wipes offer an innovative solution, bringing the cleanliness of cleanroom laundering to the demanding environments of automotive surface prep applications. All tube wipers are not created equal. Tube wipes have been a standard tool in the automotive industry for the past 30 years. As the leader in surface preparation products, Contec has designed a product that doesn’t cut corners for superior performance, improved paint quality, and a reduction in total process cost.

5 Resons why CleanTube wipes are a must-have tool for automotive professionals:

1. Superior Cleaning Performance

Constructed from 100% traceably sourced polyester yarn, CleanTube™ wipes are designed to provide superior cleaning and pickup performance. Originally designed for removing excess sealant, these wipes excel for use in cleaning paint automation equipment.

 

2. Durability and Low-Lint Design

The durable polyester material and heat-cauterized edges of CleanTube wipes offer several benefits. Heat cauterized rolled edges reduce the risk of shedding fibers that could otherwise contaminate the surface. This low-lint design ensures that the surface remains free of debris, an essential factor in achieving a high-quality paint finish without imperfections.

 

3. Efficiency and Convenience

One of the standout features of CleanTube™ wipes is their tubular construction, which allows technicians to "load" multiple wipes onto their arms at once, significantly reducing downtime during surface preparation. This innovation increases efficiency in fast-paced automotive environments, enabling professionals to work more quickly without sacrificing cleanliness.

4. Versatility for Tight Spaces

Constructed from 100% traceably sourced polyester yarn, CleanTube™ wipes are designed to provide superior cleaning and pickup performance. Originally designed for removing excess sealant, these wipes excel for use in cleaning paint automation equipment.
