To dilute all-purpose cleaner, the amount used depends on the type of cleaning task you need to perform, specifically whether it's for light or heavy cleaning.
Proper dilution ensures the cleaner is effective without wasting product or leaving excessive residue. According to the provided reference, when using a General Purpose Cleaner (which can be considered an all-purpose cleaner), you should always use cold water for dilution.
Here are the specific dilution rates based on the cleaning intensity:
- Light Cleaning: Mix 1/2 oz of General Purpose Cleaner per gallon of cold water. This is suitable for general cleaning tasks such as wiping down surfaces, light spills, or regular maintenance cleaning.
- Heavy Cleaning: Mix 2 oz of General Purpose Cleaner per gallon of cold water. Use this concentration for tougher jobs like removing grease, stubborn stains, or cleaning heavily soiled areas.
Using the correct dilution rate helps achieve optimal cleaning performance for your specific needs. Always mix the cleaner with cold water as specified.
