METHODS OF USE

Format R is preferably used as is, in order to quickly develop its action on any type of contamination and exploit its viscosity, which allows the product to adhere to vertical surfaces.

• For work surfaces: prepare a 3-5% water solution;
• For various equipment: prepare a 5-10% water solution;
• To remove scales from blades and conveyor belts: apply the product as is. The action is boosted by the temperature of the surfaces to treat: a more effective and quicker action is achieved at 40-50ºC.
• Format R can also be used as dewaxing product in the citrus fruit sector to clean and descale machinery, at a concentration of 10%

Format R is over 90% biodegradable, it is solvent free and does not release harmful vapours; however, in view of its high degreasing power, we recommend handling it, wearing rubber gloves and protective glasses.
