VI. RECOMMENDED APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Application Method: Product may be applied to any surface for removal of oils. The product can be applied through power washers, garden type sprayers, fire pump or any other portable pump with seawater or freshwater suction that is equipped with a chemical inductor or feed pump. For smaller areas properly diluted DYNAMIC GREEN™ may be applied with sponge, mop, scrub brush or cloth. Apply liberally, adjusting dilution on site if necessary.
2. Concentration/Application Rate: For heavily weathered oil on rocks, a diluted solution of 4 parts water to 1 part product is recommended. For heavily weathered oil on beaches/sand a diluted solution of 7 parts water to 1 part product is effective. For removing oil from vegetation, a diluted solution of 10/20 parts water to 1 part product is preferred. Product is effective in fresh or salt water.
3. Conditions for Use: Allow diluted product to soak for 20-30 minutes to soften and lift oil from surface. Reapplication may be necessary for severely contaminated areas. Vacuum suction equipment and sorbent boom or pads should be used to collect the washed effluent. When proper containment equipment is in place and a soak time of 20 minutes has been achieved, a diluted solution of 20 parts water to 1 part product should be applied through a pressure washer or flushing device to remove oils. Product and oil should be vacuumed up or absorbed with absorbent boom and disposed of according to EPA guidelines.
