Restore A Garage Etch and Clean is a concentrated, acidic cleaning solution that produces a light etch. The material uses phosphoric acid to lightly etch the surface and remove mild efflorescence. Using phosphoric instead of muriatic acid gently increases the porosity without damaging the substrate, thereby allowing better penetration.
- Restore A Garage Etch and Clean uses phosphoric acid to lightly etch concrete, increasing porosity without damaging the substrate.
- The product prepares concrete surfaces for staining and sealing by removing mild efflorescence and improving penetration.
- It is a concentrated formula, mixed at 4 parts water to 1 part Etch and Clean, and sprays easily in an acid-resistant sprayer.
- Apply with a pump sprayer, scrub with a nylon brush, and do not allow the solution to dry on the substrate.
- After cleaning, pressure wash or scrub with clean water and let dry completely before applying any coating or stain.

Application:
Dilute the material as described. Test Etch and Clean to assure compatibility. Pre-wet surface with water. Apply with a pump sprayer and scrub with a nylon brush. Do not allow the solution to dry on the substrate. Once cleaning is complete, pressure wash or scrub with clean water, rinsing away all the cleaning solution. Let dry completely before application of coating or stain.
Coverage:
When diluted about 500-750 per gallon.
