Do not mix
Don’t play the little chemist! You cannot improvise with chemistry.
Even if you wear any possible and imaginable PPE (personal protective equipment), you should never mix products because their reactions to each other can be very dangerous. For example, if you take a chlorinated product and put it in contact with an acidic product, it would create a gas that is very toxic to humans (chlorine).
Familiarize yourself with the technical documents provided with the product. There are actually three sources of information:
