Wipe Concentrate

Postby scarlet » Wed Sep 21, 2011 10:28 am

I have some wipe concentrate and need to make it up.
From what I gather I need to mix about 5mls of the concentrate with distilled water. But when I have looked into distilled water I have found to get distilled water you need to
Boil it and then condense the steam on a cold surface and collect the water that runs off. That is distilled water.
:shock:
How do you guys make up your concentrate into wipe solution? :wine:

Using boiled water is fine. In the past i have just used hot tap water to make up wipe solutions, and it's not gone off quickly. Perhaps the person who put "distilled" on the instructions was not aware of the meaning of the word!

I looked into this at length when I 1st got my concentrate solution, but I couldn't find any to buy & certainly don't have the time or equipment to make it. I've always just used cooled boiled water & never had any problems.
