HANDLING AND STORAGE
Clean Up:
Always clean application equipment after use with water.
Rinse plants and vegetation with water after exposure. Care must
be taken to cover any kind of exposed aluminum materials to avoid
discoloring as this product is actually corrosive to metal. Do not
combine or use with any product containing chlorine bleach (also
known as Sodium Hypochlorite).

Never store mixed brightening solution in an airtight container. This

Brush Method:
Brush (recommended method): Scrub surface with stiff, short-bristle
brush, using moderate pressure. Do not use a wire brush.
Pressure Wash:
For hardwoods, use 500-1,000 PSI to be certain no damage is done
to the wood. Use a 40° sprayer tip and 1,500-2,500 PSI for pressure
treated woods. Always move lengthwise with wood to prevent cut
marks in the grain - preferably 18+ inches away. Both methods help
to ensure aged surface is totally eliminated.
Rinse:
If pressure washing is not employed after brushing, rinse thoroughly
with a garden hose, using the highest pressure nozzle setting
available. On a vertical surface, continually rinse cleaned areas to
avoid streaking. Rinse any wood fibers off surrounding surfaces
immediately. When dry, wood surface should appear brighter than
normal. The wood is now ready to accept a stain or oil finish.
Dry Time:
Allow the wood to dry thoroughly before applying a water-based
finish and a minimum of 24 hours before applying any oil-based
finish.
CAUTION: Wet wood and coated wood surfaces can easily become
slick when wet. Always use caution when walking on wet areas.
