"[it] is a one-step broad spectrum virucide, fungicide, and bactericide" Active Ingredients:" Alkyl (C14, 50%; C12, 40%; C16, 10%) dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride 5.36%. Octyl decyl dimethyl ammonium chloride 4.02%. Didecyl demethyl ammonium chloride 2.71%. Dioctyl dimethyl ammonium chloride 2.01%. " Procedure: "Dilute 1/2 ounce of Special Respirator Cleaner Plus in 1 gallon of warm water. Wet surface thoroughly by brushing, soaking or spraying. Let stand for 3 to 10 minutes. Rinse excess solution from the equipment that has been disinfected." It is said to also "remove ... dirt and dust ... hard water scale, soap scum and body fluids such as blood, and mucous". Seems to be pretty safe: "diluted 1 part with 256 parts of tap water it is an effective one-step disinfectant and cleaner for use on inanimate surfaces not harmed by water". I believe I've seen a guarantee somewhere in the papers they sent me, that they even replace equipment that was verifiably damaged by their cleaner (dipped my old regulator that I wish someone would replace, but it didn't do any harm, sigh) My stuff finally smells good and is of the "squeeky" cleanliness that sends squeekily clean TV housewifes in all kinds of high mental and spiritual states. And the used solution ...um...it...well...even worked great on my ....um... running shoes and neopren booties that were probably in much more need of disinfection than the counterlung ... ;-> Regards, Walter Comper BTW. They also have complete respirator/SCBA cleaning kits and even a heated drying unit - just in case you want to pamper your lil' buddy ;-) --Next_Part_2973867943_420989_MS_Mac_IMN Content-type: text/html; charset="us-ascii" Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>Re: Disinfecting the loop - (again)</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF"> <FONT SIZE="2">Hi everybody-<BR> <BR> Since the disinfection issue is coming up again and again, here's my input to dry out the goober ;-)<BR> <BR> Special Respirator Cleaner Plus, made by<BR> <BR> Georgia Steel & Chemical Co., Inc.<BR> 10810 Guilford Road<BR> Annapolis Junction, MD 20701<BR> USA 800.296.0351<BR> 301.317.5502<BR> FAX 301.470.6313<B><BR> </B>http://safetyonline.net/GeorgiaSteel/<BR> <BR> They state that "[it] is safe for use on all respirators and meets OSHA, ANSI, and CSA recommendations for disinfecting respirators".<BR> "[it] is a one-step broad spectrum virucide, fungicide, and bactericide"<BR> <BR> <B>Active Ingredients:</B>" Alkyl (C14, 50%; C12, 40%; C16, 10%) dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride 5.36%.
