POWER CLEAN
PURPOSE:
Power Clean is a concentrated alkaline cleaner with added Ammonia for
cleaning dirt, grease, grime, smog and industrial fallout.
DIRECTIONS:
Always check first the surface to be cleaned for colourfastness by testing in an
inconspicuous area. Use water to dilute Power Clean and then apply to the
area to be cleaned so the dirt is penetrated. Agitate with a brush, rag or
sponge before rinsing clean with water. Do not allow Power Clean to dry on
the surface. Power Clean works best on cool surfaces.
Power Clean is ideal to clean tyres, wheels, under bonnets, door jambs and
engines. Power Clean is also ideal for cleaning floors, stoves, benches, baths,
showers and toilets.
