Dilution Rates
General Dilution Rates: 5:1, 10:1, 20:1
Use stronger dilutions for areas that have heavy grade and/or higher levels of
hydrocarbon contamination initially and use increased dilution rate, continued rinsing
will eliminate the whiting. If whiting does occur it means that too much concentrate is
being used. If whiting occurs use a mild vinegar/water dilution to remove.
DO NOT USE ON GLASS. RINSE IMMEDIATELY AFTER CONTACT. MaxClean
will etch glass although this risk decreases as dilution rates increase.

Instruction
1)
Apply with pump sprayer 2) Agitate soil with rake or
tiller to depth of contamination, spray as you agitate soil to
make contact with all contaminated soil 3) Spread soil out in
place 4) Check after 72 hrs, Repeat if necessary
Small Heavy Grade
Oil Spills on Soil
(crude oil, heavy
lubricant oils)
3:1
1)
Apply with pump sprayer 2) Agitate soil with rake or
tiller to depth of contamination, spray as you agitate soil to
make contact with all contaminated soil 3) Spread soil out in
place 4) Check after 72 hrs, Repeat if necessary
Small spills on water
1:1
1) Contain the spill from spreading using containment booms,
etc. 2) Spray the chemical directly on the surface
contamination using a very fine mist of chemical, full
strength. 3) Check after 24 hrs, repeat if necessary
Concrete Floors
10:1
1)
For heavy spills, use Oil Dry to absorb excess and
prevent spreading 2) Spray floor and contaminated Oil Dry,
mixing as you spray to contact all contaminated media. Set
aside and allow to dry, you can actually reuse Oil Dry once
hydrocarbons are converted. For light spills, spray directly on
concrete and let stand. Repeat if necessary.
Routine Concrete
Floor Maintenance
20:1
Pressure Washer ,
20:1
1) Mop on floors and let dry. Will remove residual oils
and seal surface of the concrete.
1) For heavy contamination pre-treat with 3:1 and let stand for
cleaning equipment,
floors, etc.

approximately 10 minutes 2) Mix 20:1 in chemical tank, or
regulate siphon to 20:1 ratio. 3) Spray equipment from top
down (avoid glass, if contact with glass, rinse immediately
with fresh water) Runoff will be treated and safe for disposal
in drain.
1) Effective on all types of organic hydrocarbon compounds,
spray directly on contaminated area, let soak for 1-2 minutes
and wipe clean with cloth or towel.
1) Apply 2) Let stand for 2 –3 minutes 3) Buff out with an
abrasive pad
1) Repeat above
1) Apply 2) Let stand 15-20 minutes 3) Power wash for best
results
1) Reapply 2) Do not rinse
1) Spray on hydrocarbon stain 2) Let product dry 3) Rinse
with water
1) Apply 2) Do not rinse
1) Apply 2) Let stand 2-3 minutes 3) Wipe or rinse with a
clean cloth
May be used initially then immediately switched the next day
to the 30:1 solution
1) Spray on the engine and allow to soak for 10-15 minutes.
Rinse clean with water or power washer.
1) Fill parts washer reservoir with chemical at 5:1.
Replacement depends on usage, but typically residue is safe
for disposal down city sewer. If excess oil residue present,
add additional chemical, circulate and check if clean. When
clean, can be disposed of in city sewer.
1) Apply 2) Let stand 15-20 minutes 3) Rinse 4) Repeat if
necessary
1) Apply 2) Do Not rinse
*Cleaning tools will become odorless and clean from
use with product
