Wash equipment with a 1 to 3% solution of <strong>PREMISE DEGREASER PLUS<\/strong>. Use a hand scraper, wire brush and\/or compressed air to remove loose and clinging soil and crop debris.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Step 2<\/strong>: High Pressure Rinse. Use a pressure washer at 2,000 \u20133,000 psi on all areas where soil can accumulate. Turbo nozzles are generally more effective at removing soil than regular nozzles.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Step 3<\/strong>: Final Treatment. Treat all openers, tires and wheels with a 10 to 15% solution of <strong>PREMISE DEGREASER PLUS<\/strong>, applied with a sprayer.
