Default Coolant flush

Hello I have a 07 Silverado and mistakenly mixed Dexcool with the green coolant. Does anyone have suggestions on doing a complete flush? Thank you

Drain the fluid and run water through the system

Run til hot and pull lower rad hose. Replace fill with water. Repeat three times This time fill with 100% of coolant you want to use. It'll be close to 50/50.

Not knowing which "green stuff" we are talking about, I have to ask: Does the bottle that the green stuff comes in say it is compatible with Dexcool?
