Post subject:  Cleaning my new IBC tote - help please

I've started my new system and wanted to glean some wisdom of others early on.
I believe my IBC had FL4440 (FLO-QUAT 4440)

Should this be a matter of just a wash out a few times and scrub with detergent? Or should I use something harder?

It has already been hosed out a few times.

Many thanks,

Other than it's apparent use as propulsion gel it seems pretty safe as per it's MSDS so I would guess a couple of scrub outs with detergent would be fine.

Ive just started using green scouring pads that are round hook and loop style found on amazon that connect to drill. They will rip through anything if your drill is fast enough. Work wonders on IBCs

:D do you have a ute?
throw your IBC on the back...
take a trip to car wash...
clean it out high pressure/soap/high pressure rinse.

Use their water, pollute their water, no responsibility. :D :laughing3:
