How It Cleans
Saponification

The act, process, or result of making soap: conversion into soap
When you spray The Meanest Degreaser on–you guessed it–grease, the grease turns into soap. Seriously. Most products have to add soap to their formulas, but because The Meanest’s active ingredient sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is lye, The Meanest Degreaser turns grease into bubbles.
HOW TO PUT THE MEANEST DEGREASER TO WORK
Important: Before applying The Meanest Degreaser using an electrostatic sprayer, you must wear the appropriate personal protective equipment: safety glasses and a half-face respirator.
How to Clean Greasy Surfaces
Apply The Meanest Degreaser to soiled areas or surfaces with a mop, sponge, spray, or by immersion, then wipe or scrub clean. Finish by applying The Meanest APC and let it air dry.
How to Clean and Deodorize Toilet Bowls, Urinals & Bidets
For best results, clean bathrooms with The Meanest Degreaser and The Meanest APC, respectively.
Before using The Meanest Degreaser, remove any heavy soil. Empty the toilet bowl or urinal and liberally apply The Meanest Degreaser to exposed surfaces, including under the rim, with a cloth, mop, sponge or spray device until the surface is thoroughly wet. Let the solution sit on the applied areas for 10 minutes before flushing for a thorough cleansing effect. Next, apply The Meanest APC to the surface until it’s thoroughly wet for finishing clean. Allow to air dry.
How to Clean Mirrors & Windows
Use The Meanest APC on indoor surfaces (bathroom mirrors) and both The Meanest Degreaser and The Meanest APC on outdoor surfaces (outward-facing windows).
Spray The Meanest APC on the surface and then wipe, squeegee, or scrub clean with a paper towel, cloth, or sponge. Residual wetness may be removed with a paper towel or cloth or can air dry. If streaks appear after drying, wipe clean with a dry towel or slightly damp clean paper towel or cloth.
How to Clean Water Sensitive Equipment
Completely power off electrical equipment prior to treatment. Pre-clean soils from external surfaces with a clean paper towel, cloth, or sponge slightly wetted with The Meanest APC. Carefully apply solution using a cloth or spray device so only enough solution is applied to keep the surface thoroughly wet for 2 minutes. Avoid over soaking and prevent pooled or puddled areas. Treated surfaces must remain wet for 2 minutes. Reapply as necessary to keep wet for 2 minutes. Do not rinse. Allow surfaces to air dry. If streaks appear after 2 minutes, wipe clean with a dry or slightly damp, clean paper towel or cloth. Do not restore power to electronic equipment until surfaces are thoroughly dry.
How to Clean Food Contact Surfaces & Kitchenware
For best results, clean with The Meanest Degreaser first and finish with The Meanest APC.
Dilute The Meanest Degreaser to 1:1 with water. Wash, wipe, or rinse items with water, then apply solution with cloth, sponge, spray or immersion. Let the solution stand for 1 minute and wipe dry with a clean towel or allow it to air dry. Rinse with The Meanest APC and allow it to air dry.
Additional Notes
Facility managers should expect to use 10 or more cases of The Meanest APC every month if using the product daily.
