Specifically developed to remove stubborn metal oxide contamination from solar panels, including rust, iron oxide, aluminium oxide, and industrial fallout. It reacts instantly with metal oxide particles, breaking them down and loosening deposits without the need for abrasive scrubbing or scraping.
Designed for use on photovoltaic (PV) modules affected by contamination from foundries, steelworks, metal processing facilities, rail infrastructure, and industrial environments, MRA safely restores panel performance while protecting anti-reflective coatings, silicone seals, and aluminium frames. Independently tested and certified by TÜV Sud, the formula is proven safe for solar panels and approved by leading PV manufacturers.
Suitable for manual cleaning, water-fed poles, rotary brushes, cleaning robots, and tractor brush systems, MRA provides an effective remediation solution for contamination that cannot be removed with standard solar panel cleaners. Ideal for residential, commercial, and utility-scale solar installations.

Got a question about this product?
Chemitek Metal Oxides Removal Agent (MRA) is a specialist professional cleaning solution developed to remove metal oxide contamination from solar panels and other exterior surfaces. Designed specifically for the solar industry, MRA effectively dissolves and removes iron oxide, rust deposits, aluminium oxide, industrial fallout, and other metallic contaminants that can accumulate on photovoltaic (PV) modules and reduce energy production.
Metal oxide contamination is particularly common on solar installations located near foundries, steelworks, railways, manufacturing facilities, ports, industrial estates, and areas exposed to airborne metallic particles. Over time, these deposits can bond strongly to the glass surface, creating staining and shading that standard solar panel cleaning products are unable to remove. MRA has been formulated to target these stubborn contaminants, restoring panel appearance and helping to recover lost performance.
Unlike conventional cleaning chemicals that focus on organic soiling, dust, bird droppings, or atmospheric pollution, MRA is specifically engineered to react with and break down metal oxide deposits. The product penetrates the contamination, loosening and dissolving bonded particles without the need for aggressive scraping or abrasive cleaning methods.
This specialised action allows operators to safely remove contamination that would otherwise remain permanently attached to the panel surface, helping to maximise light transmission and maintain optimal solar energy generation.
Chemitek MRA has been independently tested and certified for use on photovoltaic modules. The formula has been developed to clean effectively while protecting sensitive solar panel components, including:
The non-abrasive cleaning process helps maintain the integrity of the solar installation while providing powerful contaminant removal.
MRA can be incorporated into a variety of professional solar cleaning operations, making it suitable for:
This flexibility allows contractors and asset owners to integrate MRA into existing maintenance programmes with minimal disruption.
Chemitek MRA is particularly effective on solar installations affected by:
Whether you are maintaining rooftop solar arrays, commercial installations, or large utility-scale solar farms, Chemitek Metal Oxides Removal Agent provides a proven solution for tackling difficult metal contamination and helping solar assets operate at peak efficiency.

Learn how QLEEN rotating brushes boost solar panel efficiency with safe, streak-free cleaning. As the UK distributor, Solar Clean Robotics UK highlights the advantages of QLEEN Classic and Vario systems for both residential and commercial installations.
Introduction Lichen is one of the most stubborn and damaging contaminants found on solar panels in the UK. Caused by a symbiotic growth of algae and fungus, lichen forms hard, crusty patches that bond tightly to the panel surface —
Robots handle large surfaces while RotaQLEEN brushes target detailed or heavily soiled areas. Using pure water cleaning and Chemitek solutions, this hybrid method delivers spotless results, improved safety, and maximum system performance across UK installations.
Cleaning roof-mounted solar panels safely requires more than just a hose and brush — it demands proper access, the right tools, and pure water. This guide from Solar Clean Robotics UK explains the correct approach, recommended equipment such as chemicals
