Chlorine DIoxide can replace a variety of cleaning products currently found in most households. Chlorine based products can create other toxic byproducts , and many anti bacterial products can create germs that are more resistant to drugs. Detergents can contain chemicals and toxins that people may be sensitive to.
Chlorine DIoxide is a sensible alternative to cleaning with many of these products.
Most applications will require activation. This is done by first adding drops of sodium chlorite solution (Part-A) in the bottom of a small glass or plastic container. Add to this equal amounts of the activator solution (Part-B). Make sure the 2 parts mix. As activation occurs, the resulting solution will turn from pale yellow, to a darker amber. Activation time is 3 minutes. The container should be made from glass, HDPE plastic, or PET plastic. An 8 or16 oz plastic spray bottle will work great for most applications.

Atmospheric Treatments The applications from here will deal with atmospheric treatments. These applications include deodorizing spaces such as boats, cars, and rooms. Rather than using a spray or liquid, the idea is to create gas to fill the space. These are simply methods I use to good effect. Results may vary. AUTOMOBILE Use a small plastic dish or bowl. Start your car, and start the AC or Fan, make sure outside vent is closed on the AC, so the air recirculates. Put 40-60 drops of Part A. Place bowl in center of car,on the floor in front. Pre- measure equal amount of Part B, add to the bowl with Part A, and quickly get out and close up car. Allow to run for 20 to 30 minutes. Open car doors, and allow concentrated gas to escape the car before you get in. Open vent to outside, and flush AC system with fresh air. BOATS
Chlorine DIoxide is great for deodorizing boats. For every 30 cubic feet of air space use 40 drops of Part A & Part B in small plastic containers. Open the door to the head, open cabinets, and flip up mattresses if you have them. Place the containers evenly spaced in the area. Add Part A to all containers first, then add pre-measured Part B into each one, starting furthest from your exit. Close the hatch, and allow to sit for at least 4 hours. Re- treat if needed. A small battery powered fan can be used to circulate the gas. AC DUCTS
For a normal 3 bedroom house, (approx 2000 sq feet) Activate 60-100 Drops of Part A & Part B in small bowl. Place in air return of AC System. (Behind Filter) Turn on air, and close up the house. Let run a couple hours. Air out the house, and discard the spent solution.Discourages mold and mildew in your ducts, and freshens your home in one treatment.
You can also run 10-20 drops any time for a freshness boost.
CLOSETS, ROOMS, CLOSED AREAS
Use 100 activated drops in your closet or small room to remove musky odors, and help prevent mold and mildew.
Use 40 drops in bowls in each corner of room to deodorize the area.
MOLD AND MILDEW ON INTERIOR WALLS
NOTE: If mold is inside of walls, the interior space will also need to be treated. This usually means holes in your wall.
Fumes will be pretty heavy, do not linger, prepare everything a head of time. The fumes do not form quickly, but as I said, don't linger too long. This will not remove the stains caused by the mold.
Activate 36 drops of sodium chlorite solution (Part A) with 36 drops of the activator solution (Part B). Allow to activate for 3 minutes. Add 16 oz (480 ml) of distilled water.
Spray directly on affected area. Let Stand.
Close AC vents in room.
Place small bowls or containers along the wall, every 3 feet.
Add 100 drops of Part A to each bowl.
Pre-measure 100 drops of Part B for each bowl.
Add activator to each bowl, move quickly. Start with bowl farthest from exit.
Close up area, and let stand for 6-8 hours.
Air out room and discard spent solution.
