FAQs
How long does it take to see results?
Visible results typically appear within a few days to a week, depending on the severity of the growth and environmental conditions. Complete eradication may take longer.
Do I need to rinse the surface after application?
Yes, it is generally recommended to rinse the treated surface thoroughly with clean water after the specified contact time to remove any residue and prevent potential discolouration.
Can I use this on painted surfaces?
It is advisable to test on a small, hidden area first as high-strength biocides can potentially affect certain paint finishes. Ensure thorough rinsing if applied.
Is it safe for use around pets and children?
Keep pets and children away from the treated area until it has completely dried and been rinsed thoroughly. Store the product securely out of their reach.
What is the shelf life of the product?
The product typically has a shelf life of 2-3 years when stored correctly in its original, unopened container. Refer to the product packaging for specific details.
Can I use this during winter?
Avoid application in freezing temperatures or when frost is expected. The product works best when temperatures are moderate and there is no risk of immediate frost.
What PPE should I wear?
Always wear chemical-resistant gloves, eye protection (goggles or face shield), and protective clothing. A mask may be necessary in poorly ventilated areas.
Troubleshooting
Biocide not killing growth effectively
Ensure the correct dilution ratio was used and the surface was thoroughly wetted. For stubborn growth, a second application may be necessary after the recommended waiting period. Check environmental conditions; effectiveness can be reduced in very cold or dry weather.
Surface discolouration after application
This can occur if the product is too concentrated or left on the surface for too long without rinsing, especially on sensitive materials. Always perform a patch test in an inconspicuous area first. Rinse the surface thoroughly with clean water after the recommended contact time.
Sprayer not working correctly
Check for blockages in the nozzle or filter. Ensure the pump mechanism is functioning and the container is properly sealed. Clean the sprayer components with water if residue is suspected.
Unpleasant odour after application
Some odour may be present as the product breaks down biological matter. This is usually temporary. Ensure good ventilation in enclosed spaces. The odour should dissipate as the surface dries and is exposed to fresh air.
