The difference between cleaning, disinfecting and sanitizing
From the CDC and EPA:
Cleaning removes germs and dirt from surfaces. You can use soap and water to clean surfaces. This doesn't always kill germs, but removing them lowers their numbers. It's suggested to clean surfaces before you disinfect them.
Disinfecting kills germs on surfaces. Disinfectant chemicals are stronger than soap but do not necessarily clean visibly dirty surfaces or remove germs. Killing germs lowers the risk of infection. To properly disinfect, products need to remain on a surface for a specific amount of time -- usually 3 to 5 minutes.
Sanitizing also kills germs, but disinfecting kill more of them. Some products are capable of doing both, but disinfecting requires a bit more work. Still, sanitizers effectively lower the risk of infection.
Lemon Quat Neutral Disinfectant Cleaner is a very effective, non-phosphate neutral pH disinfectant, cleaner, deodorizer, virucide, mildewcide, and fungicide. It is designed for use in hospitals, nursing homes, hotels, schools, restaurants, and other institutions where housekeeping is of prime importance in controlling cross contamination. When used as directed, Lemon Quat will disinfect hard non-porous inanimate environmental surfaces such as walls, floors, metal surfaces, and more. Lemon Quat deodorizes areas that are hard to keep fresh smelling, such as garbage storage areas, toilet bowls, and other areas prone to odors caused by microorganisms. This product is formulated to a neutral pH and will not dull high- gloss floor finishes with repeated use.

Regular use of Jae'Kae' Citrus for cleaning and degreasing will help ensure everything keeps working properly, longer.
Because Jae'Kae' Citrus is such a powerful, concentrated formula, we highly recommend diluting it prior to use, based on the chart below. Please also note that, except for the high-pressure cleaning/jetting application, the product should be rinsed after use.
Jae'Kae' Cactus LO (low odor)
Absent the d-limonene, Jae'Kae' Cactus LO derives its power from the most complex surfactant blend of all of Jae'Kae' Cactus products. While it can serve as an admirable replacement for Jae'Kae' Citrus LF should that product’s light citrus scent bother certain individuals, it really works best in:
-
Commercial kitchens
-
-
Food preparation and processing facilities
-
-
Anywhere you need clean stainless steel surfaces
Even though it is low on odor, it is not low on strength, making Jae'Kae' Cactus LO every bit as concentrated as Jae'Kae' Citrus LF. As such, we recommend diluting it as 1 part Jae'Kae' Cactus LO to 30 parts water. However, we encourage you to try it in various dilution ratios to find the most appropriate concentration to meet your needs. Rinse after use.
Jae'Kae' Citrus LF (Low Foam)
Every bit as powerful as Jae'Kae' Cactus LO, Jae'Kae' Citrus LF uses d-limonene and a surfactant blend developed specifically for use in those jobs where cleaning with less foam can be necessary. This product works best on:
-
Floors
-
-
Parts
-
-
Certain machinery, especially when part of a production line
Jae'Kae' Citrus LF is less foamy that Jae'Kae' Cactus LO but with the same concentration. Thus, we suggest diluting it as 1 part Jae'Kae' Citrus LF to anywhere from 30 to 100 parts water, depending on your application. We also encourage you to try it in various dilution ratios to find the most appropriate concentration to meet your needs. Rinse after use.

Jae'Kae' Co. is an ultra-concentrated formula; therefore, we highly recommend diluting it prior to use, based on the chart. Please also note that, except for the high-pressure cleaning/jetting application, the product should be rinsed after use.
Jae'Kae' Co. OC (odor control)

You can use the Injection Mold Cleaner either as the cleaning solution in your hydrosonic tanks or as a spray-on application. It also works exceptionally well in descaling cooling systems.
When using Injection Mold Cleaner as a hydrosolic tank solution, we recommend diluting 1 part of the cleaner to 50 parts water. The spray-on-and-wipe-off application has a recommended dilution of 1 part cleaner to 10 parts water. For descaling mold cooling systems, use 1 part cleaner to 5 parts water.
