APPLICATIONS Drains, Sinks, Cesspools, Grease Traps and Septic Tanks.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE Remove excess water. Pour product slowly into drain. Immediately place container over drain to protect against possible splash back. Let stand for 5-15 minutes then flush thoroughly with cold water. Do not add water or any other chemical to acid as a violent reaction will occur. Always add acid to water. Avoid contact with porcelain, aluminium, chrome and stainless steel – if contact occurs flush with water. If drain has not cleared, remove excess water and repeat process.
DILUTIONS: Because grease traps and drains very in size and condition, allowances must be made for the quantity and kind of material to be dissolved.
The following are recommendations:
SMALL DRAINS: Apply 250ml, allow to stand for 5 minutes then flush with water for 3 minutes.
FLOOR DRAINS: Apply 1 litre, allow to stand for 15 minutes then flush with water for 5 minutes.
GREASE TRAPS: Apply 1 litre or more. Use 250ml periodically for control. SEPTIC TANKS: Apply 1 litre for every 500 litres capacity. Pour into drain.
CESSPOOLS: Apply 1 litre for every 250ml capacity. Insert through hose to bottom of pool.
FIRST AID If poisoning occurs, contact a doctor or Poisons Information Centre. If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting. Give a glass of water and call a doctor immediately. If skin contact occurs, remove contaminated clothing and wash skin thoroughly with water. If in eyes, flood with water for at least 15 minutes and see a doctor.
IMPORTANT NOTICE PLEASE READ
DO’s AND DONT’s ABOUT SULPHURIC ACID DRAIN OPENER
- THE DOs
- DO keep this product away from children
- DO read entire label before using
- DO wear goggles or face shield and safety gloves while using product
- DO keep container capped when not in use
- DO hold bottle at arms length while pouring
- DO keep fresh air in area of use SULPHURIC ACID is intended for use in drains clogged by organic material. It will dissolve paper, tea and coffee grounds, cigarette butts, hair and most other organic, as well as some inorganic matter. Because SULPHURIC ACID is powerful enough to do this, it is also powerful enough to produce violent reactions if used improperly.
- OBSERVE ALL CAUTIONS, WARNINGS AND DIRECTIONS ON THE LABEL. SULPHURIC ACID releases intense heat when mixed with water. Never add water to the contents while it is in the container. Since the acid produces heat, using it with hot water increases the chance of violent reaction.
- If poured into a drain which already contains caustic (alkaline) drain opener, bleach or other chemicals, SULPHURIC ACID could react violently, throwing acid back into the face of the user and causing severe burns. Never use this product if other chemicals are present in the drain. The same condition could occur if another chemical is used while SULPHURIC ACID is in the drain.
THE DON’Ts
DON’T get in eyes or on skin or clothing
