Rust Cleanze: Biodegradable, Non-Acid Rust Removal Solution

Rust Cleanze is a highly effective, biodegradable treatment designed to remove rust stains from delicate surfaces like concrete, limestone, and sandstone without causing significant whitening. It is particularly useful for removing rust stains caused by iron sulphate lawn fertiliser and moss killer on paths, patios, garden furniture, walls, BBQs, and more.

Key Benefits:

• Non-Acidic: Safe for delicate surfaces like concrete and sandstone.
• Biodegradable: Eco-friendly, designed to work without harmful chemicals.
• Versatile: Works on a variety of surfaces, including concrete, limestone, sandstone, granite, and block paving.

Coverage Rates:

Coverage will vary depending on the porosity of the surface. The following are approximate coverage rates:

• Concrete: 1-5m² per litre
• Natural Stone: 1.5-5m² per litre
• Granite: 8-15m² per litre
• Block Paving: 4-7m² per litre

Application Guide:

1. Pour Rust Cleanze into a container (e.g. a paint tray).
2. Apply with a brush, allowing 2-3 minutes for activation.
3. Lightly brush the product into the surface and repeat this cycle up to 3 times.
4. Maximum activation time: Allow the product to activate for no more than 10 minutes.

Rinsing Instructions:

• Rinse the surface thoroughly with tap water. Multiple rinses may be necessary for porous surfaces to ensure all the product is removed.
• Do not allow Rust Cleanze to dry on the surface; spray lightly with water if needed to prevent drying during the process.

Quick Tips:

• Test a small area before full application to ensure compatibility.
• Purple Colouring: Rust Cleanze turns purple when it comes into contact with rust stains. This is normal and will rinse away.
• For severe stains, you may need to repeat the process multiple times.
• A light brushing with abrasive scouring pads or wire brushes can help remove heavier rust crusts.

Case Study Example:

In a recent case, Rust Cleanze was applied to concrete slabs heavily stained by iron sulphate fertiliser and rust rings from a whisky barrel. After two applications, the rust stains were significantly reduced. For any remaining stains, Benz Oxy Cleanze (diluted 1:1 with water) was used for a final clean, leaving the surface spotless.

Effect on Plants:

Rust Cleanze has been tested on flower beds and lawns with no noticeable harmful effects from run-off. However, pre- and post-drenching of plant life is recommended as a precaution, especially for sensitive flowers.

Conclusion:

Rust Cleanze is a powerful, safe, and eco-friendly solution for removing stubborn rust stains from delicate surfaces. Whether you're cleaning concrete paths or garden furniture, Rust Cleanze offers effective results without the risk of surface damage caused by harsh acids. It's a reliable choice for maintaining the beauty of your outdoor spaces.
