Tackle Cleaner (Zep Brand)

What is Tackle Cleaner (Zep Brand)?

Tackle Cleaner by Zep is a heavy-duty cleaning product often used for industrial or deep-cleaning purposes. Known for its strong formula, it targets stubborn grease, oil, and grime on surfaces like concrete, machinery, and heavily used areas. Due to its potency, Tackle Cleaner contains chemicals that may be harmful to those with chemical sensitivities.

Why do I have an intolerance?

Zep’s Tackle Cleaner contains industrial-strength solvents and other chemicals that can cause irritation. For sensitive individuals, inhaling the fumes can lead to symptoms like headaches, dizziness, and respiratory issues. Direct contact with the cleaner may also irritate or dry out skin, causing rashes or redness, especially for those with pre-existing skin sensitivities.

What can I do about it?

When using Tackle Cleaner, wear protective gloves and, if possible, a mask to reduce inhalation of fumes. Ensure the space is well-ventilated, or use it outdoors if possible. People with significant sensitivities may benefit from less potent household cleaners for lighter cleaning tasks. Using natural, homemade cleaners for routine cleaning may help reduce symptoms and provide safer alternatives.
