Know before you buy
Yes, because this is a concentrated formula, it is designed to be diluted with water depending on the severity of the mess. You can adjust the ratio for lighter everyday cleaning or use it at a higher concentration for heavy-duty degreasing.
Krud Kutter is formulated for versatility and can be used on most household surfaces, including metal, concrete, tile, and painted surfaces. However, it is always best to test a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure compatibility.
Yes, this cleaner is effective when used in a pressure washer for exterior cleaning tasks like driveways or siding. Be sure to follow your pressure washer's manual for proper chemical injection ratios.
It is specifically engineered to break down tough, stubborn grease and grime. For particularly old or caked-on deposits, applying the solution and letting it sit for a few minutes before scrubbing will yield the best results.
Because it is a concentrate, the 128-ounce jug provides a significant amount of cleaning solution once diluted. The exact yield depends on your specific dilution ratio, but it is designed to last through many household projects.
