Directions

Allow equipment to cool below 80°C before using HDFC. Food contact surfaces such as grill plates can be rinsed with a diluted vinegar solution after water rinsing to ensure all alkaline residues are removed.

MANUAL CLEANING:

1. Prepare solution of HDFC using cold or hot water at concentrations between

1%-10%v/v (10-100mL/L of water)

2. Apply with brush, cloth, mop or mechanical scrubbing machine

3. Allow adequate contact time until soil loosens

4. Rinse product contact surfaces with potable water after use.

CIP APPLICATION:

Use HDFC at a concentration between 1.0-8.0%v/v and temperature ranging from 50-80°C. Rinse product contact surfaces with potable water after use.

OVENS & GRILLS:

1. Decant neat HDFC into dispensing bottle

2. Hold spray bottle at arms-length and spray carefully onto the surface using coarse spray to prevent misting. Do not use on surfaces over 80ºC as it will boil off.

3. Leave on surface for 2-3 minutes

4. Agitate using a brush, spatula or mild scourer pad

5. Rinse of with plenty of fresh water

6. Food contact surfaces such as grill plates can be rinse with a diluted vinegar solution after water rinsing to ensure all alkaline residues are removed.

If soiling is very heavy, or baked on, leave for an hour or more and use a scouring pad to assist with removal.

Take care when spraying, as product is hazardous. Use of a half or full face respirator, fitted with a P2 or P3 filter, is recommended.
