C2 STAIN CLEAN™
Step–by-Step Application Instructions – C2 Stain Clean Before beginning, always read SDS and technical data sheet for complete instructions and safety information. Always prepare a test panel before proceeding.
Removes old deeply embedded oils, grease and petroleum base stains. Product is a poultice. Do not dilute or alter C2 Stain Clean™. Use in the concentrated form and stir or shake well before application.
Use first C² Degrease and/or C² Remove™ to clean the surface. If you still have areas that have deep, embedded staining, use C2 Stain Clean™ to pull stains out of concrete.
COVERAGE RATES
- 1 L will clean about 0.5m2 of surface.
- 3.5 L will clean about 1.75m2 PLEASE NOTE: Coverage rates are offered for estimating purposes only. Variations in concrete quality, porosity, job site conditions, temperature and relative humidity will affect coverage rates.
APPLICATION
Pour C2 Stain Clean™ on existing stain (first remove any buildup or debris). Ensure stain is completely covered with at least a 2-centimeter overlap. Do not work in or scrub. C2 Stain Clean™ should be on the surface thick/heavy enough so that you cannot see concrete below. While C2 Stain Clean™ dries, it will begin to pull up stain into poultice. For best performance, wait 12- 24hrs for the C2 Stain Clean™ to dry completely. Do not allow C2 Stain Clean™ to get wet while product is drying. C2 Stain Clean™ will develop cracks and darken as stain is being pulled up from the surface. Once dry, scrape up dried poultice residue with stiff bristle broom or scraper. If stain is still present, a second or third application may be required.
Surface and Air Temperatures
Best air and surface temperatures for cleaning are 10°C and above. Cleaning when temperatures are below freezing may be harmful to concrete or masonry and should be avoided however if these conditions do exist then allowing substrate to thaw before application is recommended.
Drying Time
Dry times will vary with environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity and wind.
Direct sunlight can dry C² Stain Clean™ prematurely. For best performance, treated surface should be protected from direct sunlight.
