APPLICATION
1. WEAR IMPERVIOUS GLOVES, such as nitrile. Protect eyes,
skin and clothes. Wear rubber boots.
2. Sweep and remove all soil and debris from the surface.
3. Dilute product in a plastic container to a 1:4 dilution. Brush or spray
diluted material onto surfaces. Spray carefully. More concentrated
dilutions are possible (1 part Efflorescence & Rust Remover to 3, 2, or
1 part water). Exercise caution especially with more concentrated
dilutions as they may cause etching, particularly when left in contact
for longer times.
4. Allow the material to work for one minute.
5. For heavy efflorescence, scrubbing with a medium to stiff bristled
nylon brush will improve removal. Rinse thoroughly with water.
• Efflorescence & Rust Remover is designed to provide effective and
easy efflorescence removal while protecting against etching when
applied and rinsed appropriately.
• Efflorescence & Rust Remover should be test applied in an
inconspicuous spot in order to optimize the application technique and
to evaluate the effect, before treating the entire area.
PRECAUTIONS
• WEAR IMPERVIOUS GLOVES, such as nitrile, which are acid
resistant. Wear safety glasses when handling product. Avoid
prolonged contact with skin or inhalation of vapors. Use with
adequate ventilation. Contains salt of organic acid. Wear rubber boots
to protect feet. Slippery when wet.
• Contact with product may damage clothing.
• Do NOT mix with bleach, cleaners or other chemicals; chemical
reactions may occur and produce poisonous gas.
• PREVENT RUN-OFF. This heavy duty product is not compatible
with lawns and plants. Rinsing with large quantities of water dilutes
the effect. Take appropriate precautions for vertical applications.
• Prevent contact with aluminum and other metals. Protect all non-
concrete surfaces.
• Protect from freezing.

below.
