Sorry, that's about all the context there is. Does this make any sense to anyone?

Metal cleaner and degreaser


Explanation:
As far as I know, trains are cleaned with this fluid while driving through a shed in the sidings.

http://www.railway-technical.com/train-maint.shtml

"Exterior washing is usually means a drive through washing machine which will wash the sides and, perhaps, the roof."

Have a look at the links fpr the fluids. The second one refers specifically to trains.

Hope this helps!
