In a portable, mix 1 oz. of ClearWater Rinse with 5 gallons of water.

I put 70ml in 50 litres in my porty.

Good grief compared to Prochem fib fab rinse that's incredible. Is it as good?

Love F&F and smells great but very expensive IMO.

CW does similar job at a good price and very gentle on pumps.
