VI. RECOMMENDED APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Application Method: Spray affected area with a high pressure pump. Always apply in compliance with federal, state, and local laws. 2. Concentration/Application Rate: Dilution ratios of 1 part SEA BRAT #4 to 9 parts water for a 10 percent solution. 3. Conditions for Use: May be applied to the coastal waters of the U.S. It is designed for hydrocarbon spills on water temperatures between 50ºF and 90ºF. It is best applied with nozzle pressure between 80 psi and 100 psi, with a direct hard spray and continuously moving the stream of water over the entire surface.
