Description
The Certol Spec Clean Pre-Treatment Gel Spray coats soiled instruments in a green tinted gel that holds moisture for up to 72 hours. The bag on valve spray delivers a consistent ready to use application with no sticky residue, buying the reprocessing team time without letting soil dry.
- Gel That Stays Put – The gel format clings to instruments in the tray even during transport, where liquid sprays pool and drain away.
- 72 Hour Moisture – The manufacturer rates the gel to maintain instrument moisture for up to three days, covering long holds and transfers.
- Visible Coverage – The green tint shows exactly which instruments were treated, removing guesswork at the receiving sink.
Gel Pre-Treatment Spray for Instruments That Must Wait
Some instruments cannot reach the sink quickly: off site procedures, transport to central processing, and end of day backlogs all create the delay where soil dries and hardens. The gel spray is formulated for that delay, a neutral pH ready to use coating that keeps the load moist for up to 72 hours per the manufacturer. The bag on valve delivery sprays evenly at any angle without propellant mixing into the gel. Twelve 12 oz bottles come in a case, sized to station one at every point of use. Mobile, satellite and transport heavy reprocessing programs get the most from this format.

Why Choose Spec Clean Gel
Foam and liquid pre-treatments assume the tray sits still, but transport breaks that assumption. The gel’s cling and 72 hour rating are built for instruments that move and wait, and the green tint closes the communication gap between the sending and receiving teams. It is the pre-treatment for logistics, not just for sinks.
- Transport Proof – Clinging gel stays on instruments through movement that drains liquid treatments away.
- Visible Assurance – The green tint tells the receiving team the load was treated, no paperwork chase required.
- Longest Hold in the Line – The up to 72 hour moisture rating matches the foam and exceeds routine overnight needs.
- Clean Wash Off – No sticky residue means the wash step starts from treated soil, not from gel film.
Manuals and Troubleshooting Guides
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the gel keep instruments moist?
The manufacturer rates the gel to maintain moisture for up to 72 hours after application. Instruments should still be reprocessed as soon as practical.
How is gel different from ProEZ Foam?
Both are ready to use pre-treatments with a 72 hour moisture rating. The gel clings through transport and tints green for visible confirmation, while the foam is the economical station spray and refill system.
Does it leave residue?
The manufacturer states the gel leaves no sticky residue. Instruments proceed through normal cleaning afterward.
What is bag on valve?
The product sits in a bag inside the can, separated from the propellant, so the spray stays consistent and works at varied angles. Only gel leaves the nozzle.
How is it packaged?
Twelve 12 oz spray bottles per case. This listing sells the full case.
Who manufactures the gel?
MicroCare, LLC, in the Spec Clean line that succeeded Certol International. The gel carries part number GEL/12-1.
