Blue Gold Aircraft Brake Cleaner
Aviation maintenance demands precision, especially when it comes to brake systems. Brake dust, hydraulic residue, and carbon buildup can compromise performance if not cleaned properly. That’s why aviation professionals rely on Blue Gold: an all-purpose industrial degreaser and aircraft brake cleaner trusted around the world.
Manufactured in the USA by a leading industrial cleaner's manufacturer, Blue Gold is approved in maintenance manuals by Pratt & Whitney, Rolls‑Royce, Allison, and GE. Whether you're servicing commercial airliners, private jets, or rotary aircraft, Blue Gold ensures safe, effective brake cleaning without damaging sensitive components.
Trusted Across the Aviation Industry
Blue Gold isn’t just another industrial detergent. It's a purpose-built solution designed to work with today’s aircraft brake maintenance products and meet the rigorous standards of MRO teams, FBOs, and aviation service providers.
Its concentrated formula penetrates and lifts carbon deposits, brake dust, grease, and oil from:
- Wheel assemblies
- Brake calipers and housings
- Landing gear components
- Tire sidewalls and fairings
As an industrial strength cleaner, Blue Gold is safe on aluminum, magnesium, titanium, and painted or powder-coated surfaces, a key benefit for aircraft with delicate finishes or lightweight brake systems. This performance makes it ideal for integration with aircraft wheel cleaning systems and manual cleaning procedures alike.
Proven Industrial Strength Without the Risks
Blue Gold is more than an aircraft wheel cleaner—it's the go-to choice for industries where safety, consistency, and control are essential. Trusted in aerospace, oxygen, and diving system maintenance, this all-purpose industrial degreaser is engineered to perform without putting people, parts, or compliance at risk.

Compatible with Aircraft Wheel Cleaning Systems
Blue Gold is ideal for integration with existing aircraft wheel cleaners and closed-loop cleaning systems. It’s low-foaming, stable at high temperatures, and won’t leave residues that interfere with reassembly or inspections. For operators using cabinet washers, recirculating units, or mobile spray systems, it performs consistently across the board.
Because Blue Gold separates oils and solids rather than emulsifying them, its tank life dramatically outlasts traditional degreasers. That’s better for your bottom line and your environmental profile.
All Blue Gold products are manufactured in our Texas facility and distributed globally through qualified stocking partners. However, customers are encouraged to contact Modern Chemical directly for sample quantities, technical support, and large-volume orders. From 1-gallon containers to full totes and drums, we can meet your specific MRO needs quickly and efficiently.
If you're evaluating new aircraft brake maintenance products or upgrading your shop's aircraft wheel cleaning systems, our experts are ready to help. We offer product samples, dilution guidance, and purchasing support for both end users and distributors.
