An element a ∈ R is strongly rad-clean provided that there exists an idempotent e ∈ R such that a - e ∈ U(R), ae = ea and eae ∈ J(eRe). In this article, we completely determine when a 2 × 2 matrix over a commutative local ring is strongly rad clean. An application to matrices over power-series is also given.
