01
Why the pipe objects
Degreasers can contain petroleum solvents or strong detergents and may carry oil and metal residue after use.
02
Do this instead
Capture dirty cleaner and take it to a hazardous-waste or automotive-fluid program that accepts it.
03
Already did it?
Do not mix it with cleaners, fuel or other fluids. Contain the remaining product and contact your local wastewater or hazardous-waste authority for spill guidance.
