A product for the daily removal of cement laitance, cement and lime from site plant and equipment. Unlike conventional acidic products, the manufacturer classifies it as irritant rather than corrosive.
GTL is intended for the daily removal of cement laitance, cement and lime from site plant and equipment - not for a rescue operation once a season.
The traditional products for this job are acidic and classified as corrosive. The manufacturer classifies GTL as irritant rather than corrosive, which changes what storing it and working with it require.
Equipment is cleaned differently from a surface: the deposit is thicker, and the substrate - metal, rubber, lacquer, seals - is often more sensitive than concrete.
Manufacturers describe the products in this category as not classified as corrosive, or as irritant only - which does not remove the need for gloves and eye protection.
Do not assume so. They are formulated for metal and equipment, not for absorbent mineral substrates. For surfaces, use the products in "Cleaning and restoration".
When you use it. A preventive product goes on before the soiling, or right after work, so the deposit never bonds. A cleaning product dissolves a deposit that has already stuck. Some products do both - where that is the case, the technical data says so.
It depends on the product. Where the manufacturer states that no neutralisation is needed, we have it in the technical data. Where there is no such statement, we do not assume one on the manufacturer's behalf.
By the kind of deposit. GTL targets cement laitance, cement and lime. GTN targets bonded concrete build-up and additionally has a preventive mode before a production run.
The technical sheet and safety data sheet will be available after approval.
This product has no stated coverage yet, so we cannot work out the requirement.
The calculator starts once the manufacturer states the coverage.
