VI. RECOMMENDED APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Application Method: For general use apply the product by spray, brush, mop, or standard pressure washing equipment.
2. Concentration/Application Rate: SAFE KLEEN is a concentrated liquid that can be used either as supplied or diluted with hot or cold, fresh or salt water. For small spills dilute 1:3 (product to water) and apply as described. For larger spills prepare a solution of SAFE KLEEN diluted with 50 percent water and apply as described. Concentrations may be adjusted to take account of temperatures, types and age of oil/contaminant and other local site conditions. Surface contact time will also be dependent on temperature. For low temperatures and conditions of heavy contamination extend the contact time, where possible agitation of the product during application time will assist the efficiency of the cleaning. Thoroughly rinse with water.
3. Conditions for Use: Response personnel can determine the best method to collect residue, which can include, but is not limited to, oil skimmers, collecting booms, vacuum equipment, absorbent materials, and other appropriate containment and collecting mechanisms. The cleanup residue should be collected and disposed of in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations.
