HEALTH & SAFETY GUIDELINES
* Do not pour water into undiluted biocide. Always half-fill your tank with water, add the required quantity of biocide, then complete filling your tank with water.
* NEVER mix Lightning Cleanze/Tornado Cleanze with Bio Cleanze/Perma Cleanze because toxic chlorine gas may be produced.
* ALWAYS thoroughly rinse application equipment and tanks before changing from Lightning Cleanze/Tornado Cleanze to Bio Cleanze, and vice-versa.
* The public, customers, children and animals should be excluded by barriers and tape from areas where spraying, mixing and storage of chemicals is taking place.
*Children and animals must be excluded from the treated area until the chemical treatment is COMPLETELY dry (in the case of Bio Cleanze/Perma Cleanze) and FULLY rinsed and declared safe in the case of Lightning Cleanze/Tornado Cleanze.
* Barriers and human safety "spotters" must be positioned either side of the working area to ensure the general public, customers, children and animals do not gain access.
* Apply Bio Cleanze at a maximum dilution of 50:1 – and Perma Cleanze at 4:1 – on horizontal surfaces that children and animals may walk or play on.
* Brush away all "pooling" to allow the surface to dry completely.
* Use respiratory protection in confined or poorly ventilated areas: Appropriate breathing apparatus, as designated in the relevant product SDS, must be worn if biocides are used in a confined or poorly ventilated area.
