This cement and mortar stain remover is a concentrated cleaning solution designed to remove cement, mortar and concrete residue from mineral surfaces such as brickwork, paving and walls. It is suitable for cleaning construction tools, equipment and outdoor surfaces where cement contamination has occurred.

The acid-based formula provides an effective alternative to traditional hydrochloric acid cleaners, removing efflorescence, salts and ingrained dirt while maintaining control during application.
