FABRIC FIRE RETARDANT SPRAY - APPLICATION

Mix Before Use : UNKNOWN FABRIC BLENDS: Test small strips of the fabric with different mixtures of our flame retardant and treat as follows:

1. Dip a piece of dry, clean fabric cloth in a 3-1 mixture of  Water to  Fabric Seal^™ Retardant Concentrate and dry.
2. Hold the fabric vertically.  Place the flame of a match next to one edge of the vertical piece for 12 seconds.  It will blacken where the flame was.  Remove the match.  If it does not sustain a flame or smoke excessively when the match is removed, this is the mixture to use.  Check for color fastness.  If this does not work do Step 3.
3. Dip another piece of the fabric in a 2-1 mixture of Water to  Fabric Seal^™ Retardant Concentrate and let dry.  Test with flame as in Step 2.  If that does not work, then go to step 4.
4. Dip another piece of the fabric in a 1-1 mixture of Water to  Fabric Seal^™ Retardant Concentrate.    Test as in Step 2.
5. Retreatment is recommended after three (3) dry cleanings or one (1) machine washing with water.
