An alkaline concentrate for everyday floor cleaning, by hand or by machine. Daily maintenance needs just 5 ml per litre of water, moderate soiling 20-50 ml, and scrubber-dryers 10-20 ml/l.
Concrete and floorsC-12 is an alkaline concentrate for the routine washing of floors, by hand and by machine, and it goes a long way: daily cleaning needs just 5 ml per litre of water.
You set the dose to suit the job: from 5 ml/l for daily cleaning to 50 ml/l for moderate soiling, and 10-20 ml/l in scrubber-dryers. At the daily rate one litre of concentrate gives as much as 200 litres of working solution.
For soiling that routine washing will not shift, reach for the D range - stronger concentrates, usually diluted 1:4.
Concrete accepts a sealer only when it is dry, clean and seasoned. A fresh slab is still giving off mix water and will push any coating off with it.
A new floor and fresh precast units need time to season - for precast concrete it is usually around 28 days.
Before sealing the whole area, test on a patch hidden by a planter or in a corner of the patio. The same product can read differently on two batches of the same material, and on a surface with old coating left on it, it will not bond at all.
Yes, if you choose a product that forms a polymer layer - it binds the loose particles on the surface and gives a dust-free finish. It is not a substitute for a hardener where the concrete itself is dusting because it was poorly floated - the problem is then in the slab, not on it.
Yes - choose a product approved for indoor use. With a solvent-based one, ventilate during application and for the period given in the product instructions.
Remove them before sealing, with an oil stain remover. A sealer applied over a stain seals it in and fixes it - oil will not evaporate through a sealed layer.
It helps - it limits the ingress of water and the salts dissolved in it.
A 1:4 dilution means one part product to four parts water - a litre of concentrate gives five litres of working solution. Where the ratio is given in ml per litre of water (the C range), work the other way: 50 ml per litre means 20 litres of solution from one litre of concentrate.
They differ in pH. C-12 is alkaline (concentrate approx. pH 11.5) and deals with grease and organic soiling. C-2 is acidic (approx. pH 2) and targets mineral deposits and scale. Which one depends on what settles on your floor.
Consumption depends on how absorbent the surface is and how you apply the product.
