Tar and Oil on Fire Gear No Problem for Shamrock.

Fire coat after removing Tar & Oil

- Fire coat covered in Tar & Oil
Recently we received a set of fire gear that was coated in a thick tar-like, crude oil residue. It stunk, it was sticky, and it needed serious ensemble cleaning. With some time, effort, patience, and the right combination of elbow grease and cleaning agents, we were able to get the fire gear elements in shape to return to service.
Safety for Firefighters, by Firefighters.
Take a look at the pictures. If you ever have an issue like this or similar with your fire gear- call us we can help!

Turnout gear purchases can be a costly endeavor for a fire department. The average set of turnout gear can cost $1500. At that price, a fire department could afford the maintenance for approximately 15 firefighter ensembles with Shamrock Gear. Quality certified fire gear cleaning, inspection, and repair allows a fire department to get the most out of their PPE. Well maintained firefighter gear means safe firefighters.
