ECOPROTEC Iron Stain Away is an acid-based cleaner for the removal of rust outbreaks within ferrous hard stones. Also removes cement and mortar stains. Natural stones often contain traces of Iron, which may oxidise when they come into contact with moisture, either from rain or cleaning. It can also occur when stone comes into contact with certain acid-based cleaners that contain ingredients that can accelerate the oxidation process. This would include some brick acids and cement removers. The result of this oxidation is that the stone develops rust and discolouration.
ECOPROTEC Iron Stain Away is specifically formulated to help remove these blemishes. It is an acid-based stone cleaner, which contains special rust-preventing ingredients designed for long term effect. Iron Stain Away alters the rust particles, removing rust discolouration caused by iron in the stone or environmental influences. Cement and salt residues are also removed. Suitable for use on acid-resistant natural stones, including granites and slates.
Not suitable for highly polished natural stone. The effect is limited to rough & textured limestone and marble.
NOTE: Test on an inconspicuous area before general application. Mask and protect painted surfaces, untreated wood, and other sensitive areas. Any alkalinity/product remaining on surfaces should be rinsed off. This may be done with clean water.
