GRANITE
CLEANING, SEALING AND MAINTENANCE OF GRANITE
Daily:
Sweep daily using a SPECKLEEN Masslin dust remover.
After tiles have been laid allow suficient time as per the tile adhesive supplier's specifications for the grout and adhesive to cure sufficiently so that the purging system will not inflict any damage to the grout or adhesive. Always use protective equipment for eyes, hands and feet.
A: Manual purging
Apply a dilution of SPECKLEEN® ACON™ diluted between 1:5 and 1:10 depending on the degree of
cementitious residue by mop to the affected area.
Using a single disc scrubbing machine with a blue pad or natural fibre brush to remove the contamination. Rinse with clean water and remove all residues by means of a wet extraction machine
If cleaning by hand, ensure that the cleaner has rubber or latex gloves, eye and adequate foot protection.
If skin becomes irritated, wash with copious amounts of clean water.
B: Auto scrubber purging
Add a dilution of SPECKLEEN® ACON™ diluted between 1:5 and 1:10 depending on the degree of cementitious residue to the dispertion tank of the autoscrubbing machine.
Use with blue pads or natural fibre bristle brush attachment.
Move over the affected area slowly allowing the SPECKLEEN® ACON™ to have sufficient contact time
with the substrate.
Where very bad soilage is encountered, lay down a solution of SPECKLEEN® ACON™ first and then come back after giving it time to react with the floor using the above autoscrubber system. Rinse with clean water and remove all residues by means of wet extraction machine. Ensure that the cleaner has rubber or latex gloves and eye and foot protection.
