How to use this result

A planning quantity, not an instruction to pour.

1. Verify

Recheck volume, test reading, product strength, density or purity, and the selected target.

2. Read the label

Use the label’s application method, protective equipment, maximum dose, spacing, and re-entry directions.

3. Add separately

Never combine chemicals. Add one product at a time with circulation as directed.

4. Retest

Start with the staged amount, allow the label-directed circulation time, and measure again.
