What % hypo do you use?  This will determine your final dilution

You are using a 4-1 ( 16-4 so you get 20lts of RTU softwash solution) mix if you are using 10% hypo then your solution will be 2.5%

3-1 of 15% gives a 5% RTU dilution.

6-1 of 15% would make a 2.5% dilution

12-1  of 15% would make a  1.75%  dilution .

It’s a basic maths equation…… well it seams basic now I’ve downed half a bottle Jack Daniel,  :D
