The settings determine how much mixture is used, I leave mine on D all the time because it gives the most foam but if you want to keep the use of shampoo down then put it on a lower setting.

As for how much to use, its really a case of trying different ones untill you have one you like.

I have a 1lt bottle ( my original sff bottle ) that I fill 75% with SFF and then fill to the top with HyperWash and then give it a good shake to mix it up, then I have it ready to shove in my Gilly when I need to.
I used around an inch of that mixture and it turns my black car white!

Hope that helps ya mate!

Zoe!
