2 dippings using fresh unstabilized dip wash. Ecotraz should be added at the rate of 1L per 750L water, taking the total amount of water in the tank into consideration.
Or:
A fresh unstabilized wash for the first dipping, which is then stabilized with the addition of lime at the rate of 4kg lime per 750L dip wash, added immediately after the initial dipping. This stabilized dip wash is now suitable for the second dipping, 7 days later.
