Concrete Cleaner, Paint Stripper and more!

The Universal Concrete Cleaner removes various deposits and contaminants from concrete, blocks, masonry, stones, and other surfaces:

dirt, grime, and stains         latex-based paints & adhesives 
oil spills water-based acrylic paints
tire marks tree sap resin

This cleaner and degreaser does more. It can also remove water-based paints like latex and acrylics. Just adjust the dilution and how long you let the cleaner sit on the surface. Since it has to be allowed to sit on the surface, it does not work well on walls. Tougher jobs will the help of a pressure washer. It does not remove oil- or solvent-based paints, adhesives, or mastics.

Dilute to Match the Cleaning Job

Light cleaning … 1 oz. cleaner/gallon of water
Many light cleaning jobs around the home or in the shop.
 
Normal cleaning … dilute 10:1
Shop floors and walls, bilges, exhaust stack smoke, rubber clothing, oil-soaked ground or beach sand, vinyl siding, decks, teakwood, exterior mobile homes, air conditioner filters, shower stalls, bathtubs, sinks, carpets, etc.
 
Heavy cleaning … dilute 5:1
Ramps, decks, oil platforms, engine rooms, automatic transmission parts, bulkheads, galleys, oil-stained concrete, petroleum-based drilling mud, creosete, etc.
 
Extra heavy cleaning … dilute 1:1 or use straight
Holding tanks, engines, carbon on engine heads, grease traps, oil and grease on concrete, encrusted oil and grease, removing paints and adhesives, etc.
 
Stripping paint … use straight
Once the paint dissolves, pressure wash or wipe it off. If necessary, spray on more cleaner to keep the surface wet and let it work. On rough surfaces, agitate with a stiff nylon brush.
 
Steam cleaning or pressure washing
A pre-mixed solution of 1:5 to 20 can be drawn from auxiliary tube or put directly into mixing tank giving up to 1 to 200 dilution at nozzle.

Effective and Safe

First, wire brush, scrape or pressure wash off excessive deposits, loose adhesives or paint.

The cleaner removes latex-based paints and adhesives. It is also effective on water-based acrylic paints or mastics. (Typically, modern mastics are tan or brown, while oil-based mastic is black like tar.) The cleaner is not effective on oil-based paints or mastics, epoxies or tar/asphalt waterproofing.

Properly dilute the Universal Cleaner and apply in a thick layer on the floor with a sprayer or just pour out and spread with a broom or roller. Grime and dirt will usually soften or liquefy within minutes. It helps to scrub stubborn spots with a stiff brush to to make the cleaner penetrate deeper.

Keep the surface moist! If it is hot or windy or it is taking long, apply more cleaner to keep the surface moist so that the cleaner can continue to work. If cleaning an uneven slab, push the cleaner to higher areas. Heavy mastic or paint may need a couple hours to soften. Instead of waiting and re-spraying, you can cover the area with a plastic sheet to stop evaporation and let it work overnight.

Pressure wash off the surface to remove all residue or use a scraper, squeegee or a rag. If necessary, re-apply on stubborn spots.

If there are remnants of vinyl floor backing, scrape it all off with a razor scraper after the adhesive has softened.

Thoroughly pressure wash or repeatedly rinse the surface to remove any residue of the cleaner from inside the concrete. (The cleaner residue would remove any newly applied paint or adhesive.)
