ULTRA-BRITE


2 gal mix $11.95 ..........4 gal mix $21.95..........
18 gal mix $94.95

1 cup powder per 1 gallon of warm water

Ultra-Brite is an exterior/ interior biodegradable wood cleaner and brightener. Renews and restore's decks, siding, wood furniture, railing and other natural wood surfaces. Very effective on "bleeding" woods such as redwood, cedar, cypress, mahogany and fir. These woods have tannins which migrate to the surface causing unsightly stains. Although sodium hypochlorite (chlorine bleach) is a popular cleaner, it removes some of the natural color and richness of the wood. Ultra-Brite will restore and revive the surface WITHOUT harming it. Ultra-Brite is very effective as a neutralizer after you use strippers.

This product will safely clean, de-stain, and deodorize almost any surface and soil. The natural citrus solvent penetrates and dissolves oil and grease.

For weathered and stained wood-use 1-1/2 cups of "ULTRA-KLEEN" powdered concentrate with each gallon of water. For maximum cleaning ambient temperatures should be 50 degrees or above.

STEP 1 * MIX: Mix with water and stir thoroughly until powder is mostly dissolved. Powder dissolves faster in warm water. Solution should be used within six hours of mixing.

STEP 2 * APPLY: Horizontal Surfaces: Dampen surface with water before application. Apply wood cleaner solution with sprayer, brush, or mop, working on small areas, (20-30 sq. ft.) at a time.

Vertical Surfaces - Dampen surface with water before application. Apply with a pump up type hand sprayer, working on small areas at a time. Begin at the bottom and work to the top.

STEP 3 * BRUSH IF NECESSARY: Horizontal Surfaces - Let solution stand approximately 10-15 minutes, keeping area wet with additional "ULTRA-KLEEN" solution. Thoroughly scrub with a stiff, short bristle broom or brush if necessary.

Vertical Surfaces - Let solution stand approximately 10-15 minutes, keeping surface wet with additional "ULTRA-KLEEN" solution. Solution should be applied from the bottom up to avoid streaking. "ULTRA-KLEEN" will open wood pores. Some raising of wood fibers may occur. Remove fibers before applying finish.

STEP 4 * RINSE: Rinse surface thoroughly with water. Repeat steps 2-4 on the next small area. Rinse cleaned area of vertical surfaces as work progresses to avoid streaking. Allow wood surface to thoroughly dry 4 to 6 days (on horizontal surfaces it may take longer) before applying MENCO sealants or water repellent wood finishes. A moisture meter reading must be 18% or lower (cedar/redwood/cypress should be 12% or less moisture). If reading is higher than 18% wait several days and test again, if reading is at 18% or lower then test with a few drops of water. If water is absorbed rapidly, the surface is ready for product application; if not, wait 2 weeks and test again. "Fill holes with caulking before staining." Heavily weathered or soiled surfaces may require a second application; or use "ULTRA-BRITE" to remove heavier stains and or water stains.
