Can I use thick bleach instead of thin ?

[sbond10]

My local shops seem to have run dry on basics thin bleach can I use domostos original bleach instead. I normally use around 750ml of bleach per 25 litre fv and throw the bottles into this mixture but this is with thin bleach then rinse thoroughly. What ratio would I be looking at for thick bleach?

Cheers for your help folks

Wheeler recommends about 12ml a ltr for medium duty cleaning so about 300mls per 25ltr FV.

Lidl's thick bleach is the same strength as Domestos, and is a bit cheaper.

This may be a daft question but is bleach not carcinogenic?

I wouldn't drink it!

[mozza]

Haha so why sterilise with it then? Some of it must still remain after rinsing no matter how thorough you are.

[BeerEagle]

Not true really. Good rinsing followed by a sodium metabisulphite (Camden tablet) soak will remove all traces.

Yeah, sodium met. neutralises bleach in terms of seconds rather than minutes if I remember right. I just squirt in a 10% solution and add boiling water, close lid on FV and you're done.
