Directions for Use
Residual Self-Sanitizing Level
Add 5 fl. oz. per 100 lb. of dry laundry to the final rinse cycle water. At this dosage, the product provides residual self-sanitizing activity against odor-causing Gram-positive and Gram-negative organisms under conditions of high relative humidity or wet contamination.
Residual Bacteriostatic Level
Add 20 fl. oz. per 100 lb. of dry laundry to the final rinse cycle water. This provides residual bacteriostatic activity while also softening fabrics and helping reduce static cling and chafing.
Always follow the current EPA-approved product label for exact application requirements.
