Screen wash solution mix....don't laugh
I have just bought a 500ml bottle of concentrated screen wash. The directions instruct me to use a mixture of 25% screenwash to water, in winter months. My question is, for this 500ml bottle of screen wash, how much water do I dilute it with? My brain is just going numb and I cannot work it out! Math etc, has never been my strong point ha.

25% is one fourth, so the other THREE QUARTERS of the solution must be water.
Therefore, measure out some cleaner and add three times as much water, ie:
100ml cleaner to 300ml water, or
50ml cleaner to 150 ml water.
Probably best not to mix up the whole bottle at once -- some chemical solutions don't keep as well once diluted with water.

Just saw Loon's answer when I submitted mine -- adding 1/4 as much cleaner would make a 20% solution, not 25. To make it 25% you need to add one third as much cleaner as water.
But you reminded me that yes, I should have said it's generally safer to add a chemical to water rather than water to a chemical. Sorry.
