Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How does this compare to ready-to-use leak detector sprays? A: RLD-32C concentrate provides better value as one 32 oz bottle creates up to 10 gallons versus buying multiple ready-to-use bottles. The concentrated formula allows you to control dilution strength and typically costs less per gallon. Professional shops prefer concentrates for consistent mixing and storage efficiency over pre-mixed alternatives.

Q: What mixing ratio should I use for best results? A: Mix 1 part RLD-32C with 40 parts water for standard leak detection. For example, add 1 ounce of concentrate to 40 ounces of clean water. This ratio provides effective bubble formation and even coverage. Stick with 40:1 for most applications, though some technicians use slightly stronger mixes for very slow leaks.

Q: Is this safe to use on all wheel and tire types? A: Yes, RLD-32C is formulated to be non-corrosive and compatible with all tire rubber compounds, aluminum wheels, steel rims, chrome finishes, and valve stem materials. Will not damage painted surfaces when used as directed. The pH-balanced formula works safely on both modern low-profile tires and older bias-ply constructions without causing rubber degradation.

Q: How long does the mixed solution remain effective? A: Once diluted with water, the solution maintains leak detection properties for several weeks when stored in a sealed container away from sunlight and extreme temperatures. Prepare fresh batches weekly for high-volume use. Mixed solutions may lose some bubble-forming ability over time, so dating your spray bottles helps ensure optimal performance during inspections.
