D/2 was developed by conservators who know the damage that can be done by cleaners containing acid or salts. Our product has been specially formulated without these harmful agents. D/2 is a nearly pH-neutral quaternary ammonium solution with surfactants that help carry surface contaminants away. No other solution is more trusted by architectural and monument conservators.
