Title: TFR on frames
Post by: Sunshine/Cleaning on May 18, 2010, 03:17:51 pm: For those who use TFR on frames, what ratio do you dilute it to or do you use it neat?

We used to use 1 part TFR to 25 parts water.
Some TFR's are caustic and can cause products to "dull" after cleaning.

Hope this helps
