RUST OUT
Rust Out chemically removes iron and rust build-up that coats the resin beds and fouls the softener. This iron build-up is not totally removed during normal regeneration of a water softener. Using Rust Out in a water softener will eliminate rust and foreign matter from the resin bed. This increases the life of the softener and reduces rust staining on household fixtures and other surfaces. Use regularly as preventative maintenance to ensure the softening and recharging efficiency of the softener's resin bed.

Applications

Water Softeners: Rust Out dissolves the iron in the mineral bed and is rinsed from the softener much the same as salt brine.
First Application: Dissolve 1 cup in 1/2 gallon cold water. Pour directly into brine well (softeners with no brine well, pour directly into salt tank when salt level is low). Manually regenerate softener. Repeat for heavily fouled units.
Preventative Maintenance: Add 1/4 cup for every 40lbs. of salt added to the brine tank. Layer to ensure a continuous dose with each regeneration.
General Purpose Cleaning: Dishwashers, dishes, glassware, white clothes or fabrics, and water softeners - follow directions on the back of the package.
