Speedy-Clean is a new generation non-hazardous material that etches the surface of concrete for the preparation of concrete sealers and epoxy coatings. Speedy-Clean will not kill plants or stain surrounding painted surfaces however good housekeeping is required to ensure surfaces inadvertently coated are washed off. It is particularly suited for preparation of internal concrete floors where hosing off the residue is not possible or practical.

• Speedy-Clean Concrete Dissolver Is Available In:
• * 22 Oz. Spray Bottles
• * 5-Gallon Pails
• * 55-Gallon Drums
• * 275-Gallon Totes

CONCRETE ETCHING PROCEDURE

   * Concrete must be dry to touch before applying Speedy-Clean.
   * Apply Speedy-Clean to concrete using a low pressure sprayer at an application rate of up to 500 square feet per gallon and allow to dry (it dries off in about 5 minutes). Apply a second coat exactly the same as the first and allow to dry. On contact with the cement component of the concrete, the Speedy-Clean will turn a white color and soak down into the surface.
   * Lightly sprinkle water onto all surfaces and use a broom to move the water around to activate the Speedy-Clean into a paste solution on the surface. The solution starts to turn grey as the cement particles are being released thus removing the laitance. Sprinkle more water if necessary to keep the surface wet at all times and use the broom to scrub lightly to keep the paste activated.
   * Allow 20 to 30 minutes for the wet solution to penetrate and soak in.
   * Liberally hose water onto the surface and scrub residue off with a broom until no evidence is left of the Speedy-Clean. (For internal areas where hosing is not possible/practical - use a mop and bucket of clean water to remove all the residue from the surface. Ensure the mop is continually rinsed out in clean water during this procedure).
   * Allow concrete to dry completely before sealing unless using the M50 or Primeseal water-based Epoxy coatings in which case the damp surface aids their adhesion.
