Application

UltraCare Acid Cleaner is a concentrated liquid acid cleaner in aqueous solution. The product can be used undiluted or diluted with water according to the level of concentration necessary for the specific task and the type of surface to be treated.

For the removal of cementitious grout and adhesive residues from acid-resistant surfaces, we advise dilution between 1:10 and 1:5 depending upon the level of residues to be removed and the type of surface to be treated. Apply the diluted solution to the surface and leave in contact for 5 minutes. Then work across the surface using either a single-disc cleaning machine or an emulsifying pad. Remove the solution from the surface and then rinse with plenty of clean water. For heavy residues you may need to repeat the above procedure.

This product is formulated to not damage ceramic coatings, glass coatings and metal profiles however, given the variety of materials available on the market, a preliminary test at different concentrations is always recommended.
