Dilution

Dilution depends on the application and level of soiling. For general vehicle cleaning, we recommend starting at approximately 10 parts water to 1 part product (10:1) and adjusting only where necessary. Stronger concentrations may be used for heavy-duty degreasing applications such as engines, subject to the product label and appropriate precautions.

How to use

Dilute to suit the application. Apply using suitable cleaning equipment, allow the product only a short working time as appropriate for the job, then rinse thoroughly with plenty of clean water. Do not allow the product to dry on the surface.

Important: TFR 39 is a powerful caustic-based cleaner. Extra care must be taken when using it on vehicles. Avoid use on hot surfaces, do not allow it to dry, and rinse thoroughly. Always follow the product label and safety information, wear appropriate PPE, and test on a small inconspicuous area first when suitability is uncertain.
