CLEANING AND
BOIL-OUT
When cleaning and boiling out your fryer use Keating
Sea Powder and Keating Klenzer to keep your fryer in
top condition. Keating Sea Powder dissolves any grease
build up — even carbonized grease in fryer vessels —
one of the leading causes of premature oil breakdown.
And once your fryer vessel is clean, use Keating
Klenzer, the finest dry stainless steel polish available, to
restore your Keating Incredible Frying Machine Gas
Fryers’ (IFM) exterior to its original luster. Both Keating
Klenzer and Sea Powder are USDA approved.
