General Note about Solo Pak Products

Solo Pak ShowerBrite formulation is similar to other commercial and domestically available shower cleaning products. The chamber bottle system used for packaging ShowerBrite into small packs (650 ml in this case) limits the amount of exposure of the concentrate to very small amounts. Spills can be cleaned up with paper towelling or by mopping. We know of no serious hazards associated with the proper use and handling of this product. Concentrate is diluted in normal use 1:7.7 (ie. 1 measure 650ml to 5000ml in a Stock Bottle with water).

Solo Pak makes no warranty, expressed or implied, as to the accuracy, completeness or reliability of this information, except that such information is, to the best of Solo Pak’s knowledge and belief, accurate as of 6 September 2002.
