Application

Remove thick films of grease with a scraper or rags prior to application of ViterClene C. Ensure solution is homogenous before use. Apply by brush or clean rags (recommended), or by airless spray.

Apply ViterClene ‘C’ in accordance with the dilution described below, preferably using warm water rather than cold water. Allow 10 – 15 minutes for penetration, then water wash with potable water (pressure washing or rinsing with scrubbing is recommended) to remove all residues, and allow to dry before applying any coating. Any areas of stubborn contamination should be removed by vigorous application using e.g. brushes or clean rags, followed by thorough rinsing and allowing to dry. Ensure that all traces of contamination and residues are thoroughly removed before applying any coatings. Reduce dilution as necessary in accordance with surface conditions.

Dilution

• Heavy soiling – apply neat
• Medium soiling (light oil, grease, general dirt) - dilute 5:1 with clean water
• Light soiling (hydraulic oils, light grease) - dilute 10:1 with clean water
• General cleaning (light dirt only) - dilute 20:1 with clean water
