I am looking for a cleaning solution to be used in conjunction with our Ultrasonic cleaner that will 
remove organics (such as finger oils) from machined aluminum parts.  Some of the parts are 
straight aluminum (untreated), some are clear anodized, and some are clear chromated.
Preferably, I'd like to find one cleaner to fit all.

We are currently using Branson's MC-3 which is far too harsh and has resulted in aluminum
oxide deposits and/or tarnishing even after repeated attempts to decrease time and dilution
per the mfr's recommendation.  

At this point I'm ready to use some Joy Dishwashing detergent, but, would rather use a product
designed for industrial use that cost 100 times more so the customer's perception  of our 
cleaning process will be enhanced :)

Due to the nature of the product these parts go onto, "cleanliness" cannot be determined until
after an entire unit is built and tested.  Therefore, I'm simply looking for companies that sell cleaners that
are intended to remove organics and I'll have to build samples and have them tested at the customer site.
(oh what fun!)

Thanks,
Carrie
