I can tell you what it cleans better with it in the water and it`s a lot cheaper than a hot system.

So 250ml to 500ltrs is sort of the right dilution? :)

Don`t forget you don`t have to add it everytime you fill up with water,wait untill you have no more bubbles on the glass it should last about1500-2000 ltrs.Also don`t run the tank dry with it in and it will last longer.

On customer's plastic frames mainly...

Not on our equipment, as we can just replace if things go wrong
