V. SHELF LIFE
The shelf life of unopened drums of JD-2000™ is unlimited. Containers should be capped when not being used to prevent contamination and evaporation. Opened container should be used within 1 year for optimal performance. Poly containers are recommended for storage near wet environments, i.e., ships, harbors, ports, etc.

VI. RECOMMENDED APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Application Method: JD-2000™ is free of phosphates, aromatic chlorinated solvents, branched ethoxylated alcohols, and hydrotreated distillates. Optimum temperature for application is above 30ºF. Aerial Spraying - Typical application altitudes of 30 to 50 feet are advised although higher altitudes may be used if conditions warrant. Spray nozzle should be about ¼ inch in diameter flying at 104 knots or more to create enough air shear sufficient to break the dispersant into proper sized droplets. A ½ inch diameter nozzle may be needed for temperatures from 30ºF to -30ºF. Boat Spraying - JD-2000™ can also be applied by workboats with spray booms mounted as far forward as possible of the bow or wake. The most effective application from a workboat is a low-volume, low-pressure pump. 2. Concentration/Application Rate: JD-2000™ is an oil spill dispersant concentrate that may be diluted by 5 to 10 percent with water if needed. A treatment rate of about 2 to 10 U.S. gallons (7.6 to 37.9 liters) per acre (4,840 square meters) or a dispersant to oil ratio of 1:50 to 1:10 is recommended. The rate may vary depending on the type of oil, degree of weathering, temperature, and thickness of slick. 3. Conditions for Use: As with any oil related spill, timely (preferably within 48 hours) application of a dispersant will ensure the highest degree of success. Timely treatment with JD-2000™, even at low application rates, can counter the "mousse" forming effect of the spilled oil.
