The stuff sold as "Tincture of green soap"? After reading up on it, I see it's a medical grade soap. Do you use it in a spray bottle? Or better, could you tell us how you use it, dilution rates, application time, how long it lasts, etc?

I mix a spay bottle at a time and go through the bottle in about 2 weeks.
I do a 1:10 ratio to tap water.
Wipe on and wipe off just like any other soaps.

Sorry so slow to respond. Culture plays an important role in our lives. Part of how I was raised is soap is poison to animals. You never use soap in a fish tank because there's not enough fresh water in the world to wash the soap out. So there's something I can learn here and perhaps others too.

With F10 I can spray it on, and go do other tasks letting the 15 minute contact time expire. Once that's done I can wipe out the excess water, or sometimes the excess water has dried on its own. The F10 leaves no toxic residue.

So since it's in a spray bottle I assume you spray it on, and that it doesn't need to be as "thick" as I might spray on F10 because you're going to scrub/wipe the tub immediately? Once you wipe the tub how do you get the soap out? Or like F10 the residue is non-toxic?

I know this might be kindergarten level explaination but that's how I learn. Thanks.
