It is recommended for use every month, followed immediately by a treatment such as Drape or Intensive Protein on soft coated breeds.

It is highly concentrated (dilution rate of 100:1 or half a cup per 10 litre bucket of water when used in a hydrobath, or dilute 10:1 in a 1 litre squeeze bottle). Wiry or hard coats do not need to use a conditioner or treatment following the stripping process, but the coat should be rinsed thoroughly.
