Preparation
Test and protect adjacent and surrounding surfaces from exposure to the
cleaning solution. Avoid direct contact with foliage. Cover landscaping
using plastic or wet the foliage with water before and after the
cleaning process.
Surfaces & Air Temperatures
Excessively high or low temperatures will produce poor results. Best
cleaning results are obtained when air and masonry surface temperatures
are 40° F or above. Do not clean when temperatures are below freezing
or will be overnight. If freezing conditions exist, allow adequate time
for masonry to thaw. If air temperatures exceed 90° F, flash cool the
surface with water before applying detergent. Do not allow product to
dry on a hot surface.
Pre-Testing
Always test in an inconspicuous area prior to beginning full scale
cleaning operations. Test cleaning effectiveness on each type of
surface and stain.
Dilutions
Use
SafeRestore undiluted for most applications. Note: Dilution of the
product maybe used based on test results, application, and the severity
of the staining.
Application Instructions
Before applying read: Preparation section and “Precautionary Measures” under Safety Information.
Recommended application is by low-pressure sprayer. Brushing is not
necessary. One single undiluted application will remove many stains.
For deep stain removal and porous surfaces, pre-wet the surface with
water. Then use a double undiluted application, spaced several minutes
apart without rinsing in between the applications. Follow with a
pressure wash rinse of approximately 1,000 psi to 3,000 psi for the
best results. Use lower rinse pressures when cleaning sensitive
substrates. Extended dwell time is very important when using this safe
product. Do not allow product to dry on the surface always rinse
thoroughly.
Coverage Rates
Coverage rates vary from 75 – 250 sq.ft./gal depending on the surface porosity, texture and severity of staining.
Suitable Substrates
Brick,
limestone, sandstone, concrete, precast, exposed aggregate, granite,
unpolished marble, synthetic stone, terrazzo, anodized aluminum, EIFS,
uncoated stainless steel, stucco, roofs, glass and virtually any type
of construction materials. Always test product in a small area
first before beginning entire project.
Stain Removal
Vanadium and manganese; any metal or mineral oxide stains; pollution
stains, concrete leaching, caulk bleed, water hardness stains and
sealer overspray from glass; and sealants.
