I've got an old box of Gouldings "Clean-Up Total Weedkiller" in my shed, it's not made/sold here anymore. It's missing the instruction leaflet from inside the box and there are no directions at all on the outside of the box, so I need your help.

Anyone any ideas?

Best advice would be to scan the products in your local gardening shop and compare the instructions for similar formulations
