Contamination Control Strippable (CC Strip) is used to decon surfaces contaminated with plutonium and uranium. CC Strip is water-based non-toxic, non-hazardous and can be applied by spraying or brushing. Decon factors of 10 have been achieved using CC Strip in plutonium glove boxes. Loose contamination is encapsulated in the CC Strip and removed when it is peeled off.

CC Strip can be applied over CC Wet. CC Strip causes the CC Wet to be rehydrated and absorbed by the CC Strip. The contamination originally captured by the CC Wet is now removable with the CC Strip. This process is being used at DOE sites and has proven to be highly effective in first, controlling or eliminating airborne contamination (DAC) then reducing contamination levels with the use of CC Strip.
