Rinse surface with cool water before applying cleaner.
•
Prepare detergent as required by job. For best results follow detergent directions as supplied from manufacturer.

Connect the siphon tube with strainer to the brass barb on the high pressure hose connection area of the pump and then
submerge the strainer end of the siphon tube in the soap/detergent solution bottle or bucket that you want to apply.

3 minutes before rinsing, but do not allow detergent to dry on surface or it may cause streaking or cause damage to the
surface. Use good judgment.
