Multipurpose cleaning solvent from SOCOMORE with controlled volatility and a mild odour, for cleaning equipment and preparing surfaces before applying resins, paints, adhesives or sealants. For professional use.
SOCOSOLV MP495 is an alternative to acetone for cleaning and surface preparation operations. Its controlled volatility balances cleaning performance and drying time. It has high solvent power for epoxy, polyurethane and other types of resin.
Key features
- Mild odour and controlled volatility.
- Non-corrosive to metals, including light alloys.
- Free from halogenated hydrocarbons.
- Flash point of 27 °C (ISO 13736). Precautions against flames and heat sources must still be observed.
Applications
- Cleaning equipment used to apply base resins and hardeners in epoxy or polyester systems.
- Surface preparation before applying resins, adhesives or paints.
- Degreasing during maintenance operations and degreasing of metallic materials and epoxy/carbon composites before painting.
Directions for use and compatibility
Use as supplied, undiluted and at room temperature, by immersion or with a cloth, brush or pad. Do not use on sensitive or transparent thermoplastics, such as PC and PMMA. Check compatibility with the material and suitability for the application beforehand.

Precautions for use and storage
For professional use only. Wear suitable gloves and eye protection. Avoid inhaling or ingesting the product. Use and store in a sufficiently ventilated area, away from flames and heat sources. During continuous operations, extraction of vapours at the point of emission is recommended. Store under cover in the original, closed containers. Consult the safety data sheet before use.

Internal evaporation comparison
Indicative internal test conducted by Castro Composites, started on 20/10/2026 in O Porriño, with two samples in open cups. The approximate average ambient temperature during the test was 17 °C, taking both days and nights into account. No controlled measurements of humidity or ventilation are provided.
Test results
| Product | Elapsed time | Initial mass | Remaining mass | Cumulative loss | Loss as a percentage of initial mass |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Acetone | Less than 24 hours | 254 g | 199 g | 55 g | 21.7 % |
| SOCOSOLV MP495 | Less than 24 hours | 322 g | 306 g | 16 g | 5.0 % |
| Acetone | 5 days | 254 g | 0 g (complete evaporation) | 254 g | 100 % |
| SOCOSOLV MP495 | 9 days | 322 g | 292.3 g | 29.7 g | 9.2 % |
Losses are cumulative relative to the initial mass. The remaining masses for the first observation are calculated from the recorded losses. Percentages are rounded to one decimal place.
In the first observation, MP495 showed a lower relative mass loss, with a difference of 16.7 percentage points compared with acetone. Acetone had completely evaporated after 5 days, while MP495 was still present in the cup after 9 days.
These results apply to the specific conditions of this internal test. This is not a standardised test or a guarantee of savings, consumption or behaviour under other conditions. It does not reproduce the recommended storage conditions: keep containers closed.
