Cement, Mortar and Concrete Stains

Both types of staining can occur on paved surfaces, usually as a result of contamination from other sources, such as concrete furniture or the use of onsite mortars and concrete.  Cement and lime deposits are generally insoluble and therefore require treatment by a suitable acid cleaner to fully remove them.  Limate would be the best patio cleaner we would recommend for this application.  To use Limate to remove cement, mortar and concrete stains, simply add the recommended dilution to the affected area, allow it to react for 5 minutes.  Scrub the stained area with a bristle brush, working the Limate into the surface of the paving.  Wash off with plenty of clean water and repeat if necessary.

Rust Stains

Rust (Iron oxide) stains can be difficult to remove.  Many dyes used to colour concrete products are based on iron oxides, so many chemical cleaning agents may affect both the rust and dyes.  To use Limate to remove rust stains simply add the recommended dilution to the affected area, allow it to react for 5 minutes.  Scrub the stained area with a bristle brush, working the Limate into the surface of the paving.  Wash off with plenty of clean water and repeat if necessary.
