This formula can be used to remove non-silicone-based waxes and coatings. Can be used as a light grease remover and light oil remover on soiled equipment.

1. You can spray apply VPCI 414 either at full strength or as a diluted ratio mix. Spray applying is best! Immersion/dipping also when appropriate.
2. The most optimal dilution ratio to achieve adequate and even coverage of wet film for vertical or under-hanging surfaces is 60/40. This is 60% 414 formula and 40% water.
3. For larger scale projects and applications VPCI 414 is sprayable with an airless or ‘pump’ type sprayer. Dip tanks can also be used.
4. Once applied let the product stand wet for 15 minutes approximately. Depending on the film thickness of the product to be remove, and the coating cure time. Reapplication may be necessary.
5. To remove this product and the coating use a power washer set to the following settings. Pressure: 50 – 300 psi (3.4-21 bar) Temperature: 115° – 160°F (46°-71°) N.B. A pressure washer is not always necessary, often a common garden hose/nozzle will be sufficient.
