ScrewGrab is a
very efficient silicon paste, which
when applied to the head of the fastener

In maintenance applications, be they automotive or general
maintenance .
ScrewGrab can provide grip where there is none.

effectiveness.
SOAK 'N' CROAK CONCENTRATE
This is NOT Chlorine based because
strong chlorine is extremely corrosive.
It kills moss, lichen, mildew and slime on roofs,
decks,
awnings, walls, steps, paths, cobblestones, garden furniture and
umbrellas.
OK on tarseal drives, tennis courts, playgrounds and car yards.
Kills
moss on lawns too, won’t kill grass or weeds.
JUST SOAK IT AND LEAVE IT!
This product is not Chlorine based because strong chlorine is extremely
corrosive
Now that we also offer chlorine products we think it wise to explain
why we recommend certain chemicals for specific purposes.
Soak 'n' Croak, an ammonium
compound, has the following advantages:
1. Peace of Mind.
Soak 'n' Croak can be applied to any
building without risk of damage.
2. Costs less than other suitable
chemicals.
3. Kills by entering the root system.
4. For some weeks after application,
Soak 'n' Croak reactivates (works again)
when rained on.
5. Moss etc does not regrow as readily.
6. It will keep indefinitely on the shelf.
Cleaning
Soak 'n' Croak
is also an excellent cleaner, it takes time to work. Your
property will probably look cleaner in
3 months than it does 3 weeks after spraying.
Soak 'n' Croak cleans roofs,
cobblestones, patios, bricks, concrete, Hinuera stone, tents,
glasshouses, boats,
sails, outdoor furniture, umbrellas etc.
N.B. It will not affect the water-proofing of tents or other canvas
goods.
To keep your home surrounds immaculate we recommend spraying
cobblestones, patios, decks, concrete etc.
at least once a year, and tiled roofs every 3 to 4 years.
Soak 'n' Croak is non-corrosive. It
will
not stain or bleach any fabric or surface of timber, plastic, metal,
tile,
glass etc. It will not damage paintwork, discolour your aluminium
joinery
or destroy your awning stitches.
Application Rates
An average sized roof in bad condition with moss and lichen needs
about
100 litres of SPRAY MIX. For bad areas at ground level use one litre of
SPRAY
MIX per square metre of surface. Hinuera stone and slime only need a
mix
of 1 part
Soak 'n' Croak to 25
parts
of water.Tarsealed Tennis Courts and Surrounds (average 600 square
metres)
– assuming1/3 of the area needs spraying for LICHEN, we recommend
double
strength spray mix (1:7 water) requiring 1 x 20L and 1 x 5L concentrate.
Dilution Rate
Our concentrate is 30% Active Ingredient plus additives i.e.:
300g
Active Ingredient per litre. We recommend mixing 1 part
Soak 'n' Croak with 14 parts of water to
make a 2% SPRAY MIX.
More about Lichen ..
Our recommended spray mix of 1 part
Soak 'n'
Croak
to 14 parts water will kill lichen. However lichen takes a long
time
to show that it is dying or dead. While moss reacts within a
couple
of days, lichen may take weeks to lose colour. If you want to see
quicker
results spray at twice the usual strength i.e. at 1 part
Soak 'n' Croak to 7 parts water.
Reaction Time
Best applied early in the morning with little or no wind present and no
chance
of rain within 6 hours. Growth should brown and die within 2 weeks.
Sun,
wind and rain will remove dead growth given time - could be months. If
rapid
removal of dead growth is required, brushing with a broom is all that
is
needed.
Mould:- Mould forming on ceilings,
walls
of showers, bathrooms, toilets and other damp places can be largely
prevented
by spraying with a
mixture of ½ a teaspoon of Soak 'n' Croak concentrate per litre of
water. Spray on and leave to dry.
Roof Water If you
are collecting rainwater for domestic and stock use, disconnect your
tanks for at least one good rain
(2 would be better).
Why you should use
Soak 'n' Croak.
The active ingredients of
Soak 'n' Croak
and many similar products are known as QAC (quaternary ammonium
compounds).
They are all very similar in much the same way as all brands of petrol
are
very similar. The QAC chemicals are not readily absorbed by plants so
most
manufacturers of products similar to ours use additives to achieve
better
absorption. There are, however, two products marketed which have
50%
active ingredient and 50% water. They are simply bottled as
received
from the maker but do not enjoy much success because of two major
drawbacks
as follows:
1. At this strength you cannot mix in
additives to improve performance.
2. SEVERE FOAMING during application
means
spray drift from a roof or walls can land on plants around the house
and,
while it will not kill
them,
they will be disfigured for some months. This annoys the
homeowner
who will then blame the person spraying the product.
How much difference do additives make?
Additives can improve performance by 15-20%.
Foaming during application is not a problem when suitable additives are
included in the concentrate.
SPRAY MIX-How strong?
How much?
We believe that spray mix should be about 2% active ingredient
with
additives to give best results. Use 1 litre of spray mix per square
metre
of severe infestation. We will not encourage you to use weak spray
mixes
nor to apply less volume than required to achieve success.
