ABOUT STILLCLEAN
Our goal was to design a solvent recycling system that is portable, easy to use, and affordable.
StillClean is a revolutionary tool that will dramatically improve your parts cleaning quality and productivity while saving you money and reducing the hazardous waste generated at your facility. The StillClean is a portable, on site, solvent distillation system that will recycle the solvent in one or multiple parts washers for continuous use. StillClean uses actual distillation, not just simple filtration, giving you pure clean solvent for superior cleaning, all while allowing you to get away from costly solvent service contracts and helping to keep expenses associated with solvent purchases under control. You may have seen the expensive “all in one” solvent recycling systems that force your work to fit their machines, but the StillClean allows you to turn any solvent washer into a solvent recycling system at a fraction of the cost.

Save money on solvent purchases and waste generator permits
Clean solvent means faster cleaning and cleaner parts
Eliminate hazardous waste and expensive, unnecessary, service contracts with waste haulers

FAQs
We sell new, and used parts washer systems that work with the StillClean. Contact us for pricing and availability.
Yes. The basic technology of the StillClean has been in use for over 20 years and is very safe. The StillClean is listed by ETL to UL standards #201 (Garage Equipment) and #2208 (Solvent Distillation Units.) See here for more information about our listing.
The StillClean comes with a 1-year manufacturer’s warranty. As long as the StillClean is used appropriately, the manufacturer will repair or replace any malfunctioning StillCleans during the first 12 months of ownership. Some distributors offer a longer warranty period for an additional fee. If the warranty on your machine has expired, replacement parts are available to purchase.
You will have some solvent loss due to evaporation and residue left on parts after they’ve been cleaned. Over time, this will add up and you will need to add some solvent to your tank. Parts cleaner solvent can be ordered from us directly. Contact us for current pricing.
No. Solvent only “wears out” when it has too much other stuff in it, like oils and greases. The StillClean is a distillation unit that will separate your solvent from all of the oil and grease, returning the solvent to a pure state. Our process is analogous to the evaporation of water and its return via rain. Water never wears out because each time it is evaporated by the sun, it is separated from the impurities in the water. The StillClean also uses an evaporation process that has the same net effect. The result is just pure, clean, water-like solvent that you can use continuously. No matter how many times your solvent has been distilled through your StillClean, the solvent that comes out of the StillClean will always be of the highest quality.
The StillClean unit is a distillation system. This means that the solvent is separated from the oil and grease through a heating and evaporation method that does not require any filters for the separation process. One filter is used on the solvent inlet line, but this is only used to keep dirt and debris out of the StillClean.

If the hazardous waste being shipped from your location is ever spilled or disposed of in such a way that a cleanup is required, you may be required to pay for a portion of that cleanup. If you never generate hazardous waste, however, then it can never come back to haunt you. Depending on the environmental regulations in your state, you may lower or eliminate your production of hazardous waste with the StillClean.
Under a traditional solvent service plan, your service company brings you a new drum of solvent and takes away your old solvent. The solvent being taken away from your site is usually classified as a hazardous waste. Using the StillClean, you will never need to ship solvent offsite, eliminating this type of hazardous waste for your site.
Over time, dirt and sludge will accumulate on the bottom of your solvent tank. For average users, this will only need to be removed once a year. Other than that, the StillClean will separate all of the oils and greases in your solvent into the oil byproduct reservoir.
As long as it is used properly, the StillClean requires very little maintenance. Periodically, the used oil byproduct will need to be emptied from the unit through an easily accessible valve and combined with your other used oil. For most users, this only needs to be done every week or two. The air filter on the fan will need to be cleaned once every couple of months, depending on air quality and frequency of use. Once in awhile the oil filter on the inlet line will need to be replaced with a standard oil filter. Most users will only need to replace the filter once every two or three months.
Who is using StillClean?
Who is using StillClean?
Diesel Truck and Heavy Equipment
Diesel Truck and Heavy Equipment repair is one of the toughest cleaning applications out there and one job can change a perfectly clean parts washer into a really dirty one. StillClean gives users the ability to keep those washers clean day in and day out. Additionally the portability of StillClean allows you to service multiple washers with just one unit. StillClean is also perfect for delicate hydraulic and fuel system parts cleaning.
Transmission and Hydraulics Repair and Rebuilding
These are industries that require parts to be absolutely clean and free of water before reassembly, the StillClean will provide pure clean solvent to help insure that all of your hard work and money doesn’t go to waste because of contaminants in your parts washer.
Machining, Stamping and Manufacturing
StillClean is ideal for machining, stamping and manufacturing companies who use solvent to remove petroleum based cutting oils and greases from their parts. It will separate the solvent from the oils, greatly reducing solvent purchases, and in many cases giving you back your cutting oils to use again.
TESTIMONIALS
We have 29 parts washers in our facility, we were generating 3,800 gallons of hazardous solvent per year, which was costing us a ridiculous amount of money in services, permits and training. We brought in 6 of the StillClean portable solvent recycling systems and we now produce no hazardous solvents whatsoever, our machines are clean when our guys need them and we were able to reduce our waste generator status with the state, saving money on permits. This is absolutely the way to go.
We’ve installed multiple StillClean units in our facility and are recovering thousands of gallons of solvent per year.
Quality Machined Products, Inc. is a small to medium sized production machine shop specializing in close tolerance work. We were consuming as much as 10 gallons of mineral spirits a week in our parts cleaning operation. Between our steady growth requiring an ever-increasing load on our cleaning solvent, the cost of fresh solvent, disposal costs, compounded with increasing petroleum prices, we had to do something to keep our costs in check. We also wanted to be environmentally conscious and reduce or eliminate our solvent waste stream. Recycling was our answer. We researched solvent recycling stills and were shocked at the prices associated with them, with a return on investment that was way out there for an operation of our size. Then we found the StillClean unit. It has the capacity to suit our needs for some years to come with an R.O.I. that is under 12 months.Since purchasing the StillClean unit we have been recycling the waste solvent that was destined for disposal. The ease of use makes the StillClean a breeze to operate, and the recovered solvent is as clear as new solvent. The most impressive thing is your customer service. It far exceeded my expectations and should be a model for all businesses! Thanks for a great product.
I just wanted to thank you. Your machine is wonderful and it does just what I was told it would do. In less than 3 months it has paid for itself. If you develop anything else, please contact me.
Great machine guys, we love it. I can’t believe you offer so much for so little!
