Its non-flammable, non-toxic formula is safe on multiple metals and ideal for soak tanks and ultrasonic cleaning, delivering professional-grade results with eco-friendly confidence. ## Description Piston Kleen is a safe, effective, and economical water-based cleaner engineered to remove baked-on carbon, oils, greases and other soils from tracked vehicles, trucks and automotive engine parts. Developed to remove burnt-on carbon deposit in the piston rings on U.S. Army vehicles, Piston Kleen makes easy work of a major problem. Piston Kleen is recommended for soak tanks, cabinet washers, ultra sonics, and through-put machines. Simply soak (immerse) the piston/parts in Piston Kleen for 2 to 24 hours to remove even the nastiest build-up. Remove from solution when part is clean. Agitation and heat decrease the soak time, but is not necessary. Orison recommends agitation with a working temperature of 90o F. to 180o F. Note: Used pistons may have heat/stress induced wear under the carbon which may not be identified until after soaking. User assumes all liability. ## Features - Multi-metal safe - Non-Flammable - Biodegradable - No VOC - Non-Toxic ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Asin | B00IJZB6QK | | Best Sellers Rank | #559,837 in Automotive (See Top 100 in Automotive) #720 in Engine & Parts Fluid Cleaners | | Contains Liquid Contents | Yes | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars (69) 4.0 out of 5 stars | | Item Form | Liquid | | Item Volume | 1 Gallons | | Manufacturer | Orison | | Material Features | Biodegradable, Non-Toxic | | Model Number | PK1G | | Number Of Items | 1 | | Part Number | PK1G | | Size | 128 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) | | Special Features | Concentrated | | Specific Uses For Product | vehicles, trucks and automotive engine parts. | | Surface Recommendation | Metal | | Unit Count | 128 Fluid Ounces | | Upc | 667282001806 | ## Product Details - **Item Form:** Liquid - **Item Volume:** 1 Gallons - **Material Feature:** Biodegradable, Non-Toxic - **Specific Uses For Product:** vehicles, trucks and automotive engine parts. - **Unit Count:** 128 Fluid Ounces ## Images ![Piston Kleen Carbon Remover 1 Gallon - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/415u8GxZfuL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will this product dissolve carbon in a Diesel Particulate Filter?** A: it won't remove it from pistons, I don't know about diesel Particulate Filters **Q: anyone ever try to clean the pistons with this product while still in the engine? my application is for antique or classic cars.** A: It is best to remove and immerse the pistons rather than try to do it while in the engine. Piston Kleen is water based. **Q: Can this be used to spray directly into a running engine as decarbonizer?** A: In my experience, your best bet might be with straight water on a warm engine. I do not believe this product will have the immediate chemical reaction you desire in a short time span. Hope you are also aware to keep the engine RPM up when pouring any liquid into an engine as to reduce to possibility of hydro-locking the engine. You are probably also aware that hydro-locking an engine may result in bent connecting rods. Generally this product requires an 8 hour soak time at about 100F temp to work on most items. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works perfectly *by on Reviewed in the United States June 22, 2025* This is the best product I’ve ever used to remove carbon from pistons (and I’ve tried everything over the years). I soaked some heavily encrusted pistons in this product for 2 days, then I wiped them off with a cloth. The carbon was softened to the point that I could just wipe it off. Amazing! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cleans off carbon, but fairly slow *by on Reviewed in the United States January 11, 2024* I soaked some pistons and brushed this on cylinder heads. It does remove carbon deposits, but takes quite a bit of time to do so. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It works *by on Reviewed in the United States October 23, 2025* Works very well ## Frequently Bought Together - Piston Kleen Carbon Remover 1 Gallon - Brush Research FHQ FLEX-HONE® Oil, Specially Formulated Honing Oil, 1 Quart Bottle (32 fl oz) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/19510610-piston-kleen-carbon-remover-1-gallon](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/19510610-piston-kleen-carbon-remover-1-gallon) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-07-12*
