Title: DFC 210
Post by: Andrew Briscoe on July 11, 2009, 03:56:04 pm

Just about to try out 210 on my own carpet, says

add 1 ounce to 1 gallon of warm water

question is what does the scoop hold in the tub,, as i dont have scales.

also what ratio do i use if applying thru inline sprayer which mixes at 8-1
1 ounce to 1 gallon is 128-1

Andrew

with the thru line sprayer at 8:1, you would put in 8 times normal per litre

make sure its well disolved.

Andrew, you've probably realised but others may not it's a US gallon. 3.78 litres. I've had excellent results with 210 and 105.

Use a measuring cup Andrew, like the ones you get with washing powder.

Part of the answer you require was covered by Arenaclean - the scoop in the tub is 1oz or 30ml. It doesnt say so, not on my scoop, but I have tested it with the knowledge 1oz is 30ml by using a scoop marked 15ml and putting 2 of those scoops of powder into the scoop I got with my DFC210. 2 x 15ml fits nicely- not heaped though.
The 2nd part of your question I covered earlier - you will need 8 30ml(or 1oz) scoops per litre of water - does go a long way though - dont linger with the spraying, keep moving. You can spray a room in no time at all.
