    Applications & Uses

    Compatible Substrates & Surfaces
    Application

    Use diluted between 10% and 20% by volume of fresh-water. The solution should be heated to about 50 - 70°C for use. Surfaces should be allowed to soak from 6 hours to 24 hours, as necessary, and periodic movement of the fluid or, preferably, steady circulation will give improved rates of action. For pipe work internals, especially, pumped circulation of the hot solution is the recommended method of use.
