<VV> CLEANING CONCRETE

[jvhroberts at aol.com]

 I've had pretty good luck with a quick blast of Brakekleen, followed by a good dose of Simple Green, let sit for an hour, then blast with a pressure washer. I've had a LOT of success with this method, and Brakekleen is non flammable.

IF you are brave , and know the dangers , Battery acid , or muriatic acid  
at @50% works great. Just be ready to rinse it well when foam starts rising  
,after a quick booming (plastic bristles slowly!) and all stains go away. 
If you  are not a "dangerous type" of guy , forget you read this , It worked 
for me for  many years at the old shop , and concrete held up just fine. I 
do not brush  gasoline around on concrete with a broom , plastic or other 
type of bristle , It  can , or WILL cause ignition. Cleaning floors and parts 
has caused many a fire  situation for unknowing people..We just lost a guy to 
fire who left turpentine  rags in a pile  on a stairwell overnight in our 
area.
