Application?
(for Algon concentrate)
For best results choose a day when the surface to be treated is dry and rain
is not expected. Dilute 1 part Algon to 3 parts water. Apply with either a garden
sprayer on a droplet setting, soft broom or paintbrush wetting the surface evenly.
n.b. A watering can may be used but it can be wasteful. Leave to dry; results
will show in a few days.

Do I rinse it off later? Absolutley no need top What are the results? The surface should start to clear within a few days, helping restore the natural colour. top
How long will the
treatment last?
Approximately one year; this depends on the absorbency of the material being
treated, its location and the weather conditions.
