SPECIALCHEM Architectural Concrete Cleaning and Impregnation Kit CONCRETE CLEANER. Product for effective cleaning of concrete surfaces, edges, concrete patio slabs, garden architecture made of concrete, and other concrete products. Effectively removes dark deposits and dirt accumulated during everyday use. Refreshes the appearance of concrete surfaces. For use in manual washing, high-pressure cleaners, and cleaning machines. Unlike acidic products, it is safe for surfaces and vegetation – biodegradable, and solvent-free. Coverage: 10 to 20 m² per liter. Instructions: Wearing safety glasses and gloves is recommended. Apply to a slightly damp surface. Before use, test on an inconspicuous area. Do not use on aluminum. Surfaces not to be cleaned should be protected from cleaning. Depending on the application method and degree of soiling, use the concentrate or dilute at a maximum of 1:10. Garden sprayer: dilute at least 1:1 with tap water. Lightly dampen the surface to be cleaned, then spray the cleaning agent. Do not allow the agent to dry on the surface; if it begins to dry, lightly mist with water. Leave the agent on the surface for approximately 5 to 10 minutes. Brush off any extremely dirty areas. Rinse with pressurized water, or preferably with water from a pressure washer. Foaming: Use the concentrate. Lightly dampen the surface to be cleaned, then apply the foam evenly to the surface using a foaming device. Do not allow the agent to dry on the surface; if it begins to dry, lightly mist with water. Leave the agent on the surface for approximately 5 to 10 minutes. Brush off any extremely dirty areas. Rinse with pressurized water, or preferably with water from a pressure washer. An innovative, nanotechnology product for colorless protection of smooth, high-density concrete surfaces. The product effectively impregnates and strongly hydrophobicizes surfaces of higher concrete classes, such as C25, C30, and C35. Thanks to the use of impregnation, water and other contaminants do not penetrate the interior of concrete surfaces. Hydrophobization also prevents the penetration of water-borne salts, acid rain, and other substances that negatively affect concrete, causing corrosion of reinforcement, cracking, erosion, moss growth, salt efflorescence, and dirt. Hydrophobization also affects the strength of concrete and increases its frost resistance. In the fall and winter, frost makes concrete more susceptible to freezing moisture, which causes internal stresses and microcracks, and consequently, spalling. Depending on the amount used, the impregnation penetrates up to several mm, guaranteeing resistance to mechanical abrasion, allowing for use on walls, floors, and parking lots. The use of nanoparticles guarantees consistent vapor permeability after impregnation; the product does not clog pores, does not grease, and does not restrict gas diffusion or water vapor release. Application method: Garden sprayer for large surfaces. Roller or brush for details or small surfaces. Properties: Protects concrete surfaces from dirt, moss, and algae growth. Strengthens the material and protects against freezing. Does not change the original appearance of the concrete – does not grease or impart shine. Non-slip. Prevents salt and cement efflorescence. Does not close the material's pores – does not reduce vapor permeability. Resistant to adverse weather conditions and UV rays. Long-lasting effect for up to 8 years. Product use: Ideal for impregnating smooth and vibrated concrete of low water absorption, such as architectural concrete, concrete driveways, concrete building facades, as well as paving slabs and products such as flowerpots, fence panels, and other prefabricated elements. Coverage: 8-15m²/1l. Consumption depends on the application technique and the concrete's water absorption. Directions for use: Plan the impregnation so that it does not rain for at least 3 hours after its completion. Always test in an inconspicuous area first to check for the desired effect! Protect plants and all other surfaces not to be impregnated, especially glass and steel, with plastic wrap. If they become dirty, immediately clean them with a wet cloth or rinse with water. The surface prepared for impregnation must be clean and dry. Apply the appropriate amount of product to the surface, preferably by spraying, but be careful not to create streaks – apply only as much as the concrete can absorb. Spread any excess with a brush or cloth. Allow to dry. NOTE! Apply one or two coats, but only using the wet-on-wet technique. Rinse tools with running water. Apply one or two coats wet-on-wet.
