Troubleshooting
Cleaner not removing dirt effectively
Ensure the product was applied liberally and allowed sufficient dwell time. For heavily soiled areas, a second application or gentle agitation with a soft brush may be necessary before rinsing.
White residue on aluminum surfaces after drying
This can occur if the product was not rinsed off completely. Ensure thorough rinsing with clean water. If residue persists, wipe the surface with a damp cloth.
Product left visible marks on plastic
Ensure the product was rinsed off promptly and thoroughly. Avoid allowing the cleaner to dry on the surface, especially in direct sunlight.
