Antibacterial Sprays and Wipes

A1. Some odors occur due to growth of microbes. Sweat or pet urine is not itself smelly, but creates odors when microbes break down the proteins in it to reproduce. Using the Hydro Ag⁺ spray will control microbial growth.

A2. Hydro Ag⁺ is effective for disinfection of microbes, and thus works for preventing infection and protecting against odors. First clean up any vomit, then apply Hydro Ag⁺ spray directly to the affected surface and spread it around lightly with an item such as a paper towel.

• * Norovirus cannot be disinfected with Hydro Ag⁺, so please wipe the area with a chlorine-based disinfectant to sterilize if possible.

A3. After laundry, we recommend spraying Hydro Ag⁺ before drying. By doing so, it will have a preventive effect on smells caused by half-dryness and sweat. For prevention of smells caused by sweat, it is expected to have a higher effect when sprayed after the clothes have dried.

A4. It has a preventive effect on growth of mold. By coating the surface using Hydro Ag⁺ after removing the mold sufficiently, it makes it harder for mold to grow back.

• * Mold that is already there cannot be removed.

A5. After the alcohol dries, the silver coating ingredients may become visible as a white color, in which case we would recommend wiping down the area to spread the product. On tables or flooring, gently spreading the product with a non-woven cloth or similar allows you to coat a greater area evenly.

• *1  Acrylic sheets may be used to protect television LCD displays and the like.

A7. A single shot of spray, if spread quickly with a non-woven cloth or similar, can be used to wipe down an area of about 0.5 square meters. (Coverage varies depending on the material to which spray is applied.)

A8. The 480 mL Spray puts out 0.3 cc per push (for approx. 1600 shots), and the 200 mL Spray puts out 0.3 cc per push (for approx. 600 shots). Select the version which best meets your needs.
