  • Garage floors
  • Concrete driveways
  • Pool decks
  • Bridges and bridge structures
  • Stadium supports
  • Block & stucco walls
  • Athletic courts

Key Advantages

H&C Cleaner Degreaser removes grease and oil stains and prepares the surface for paints, stains, and sealers. It increases any coating's ability to bond with the surface by providing a clean substrate. 

Product Data Sheet

  1. Product Supplies

    • Stiff broom
    • Garden hose with a pressure washer nozzle
    • Bucket

  2. Product Preparation

    For horizontal applications, sweep the surface with a stiff broom to remove any remaining residue. Scrape off any excess grease or oil. Apply H&C Cleaner Degreaser on 10'x10' sections at a time.

    *Combustible; wear safety goggles with side shields and rubber gloves

    *Avoid prolonged skin contact

    *Not recommended for asphalt

  3. Product Application

    Using a stiff broom, agitate the entire surface to make sure the H&C Degreaser removes all the stains.

     

    For light to moderately soiled surfaces, mix 1/2 gallon of H&C Cleaner Degreaser to 1/2 gallon of water. Let it sit for 5-6 minutes. H&C Cleaner Degreaser is most effective when diluted with water, however, for heavily soiled surfaces, use the product full strength-do not thin. Using a garden hose with a pressure washer nozzle, rinse the surface thoroughly with clean water so that no cleaning mixture remains, and scrub the surface while rinsing to remove any loosened material.

     

    Once the surface is dry, test any trouble spots (glossy- or oily-looking areas) by applying a few drops of water. If the water does not penetrate quickly, repeat the application on those spots. Allow the surface to dry for at least 24 hours before apply your coating, or 2-4 hours before etching.

     

    Before applying your coating, make sure the surface is clean by sweeping it with a clean, stiff broom to remove any remaining residue.
