PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

BrandBold Brilliance Concrete Pre-Treatment ETCH & CLEAN is a mildly acidic cleaning solution that produces a light etch in preparation of staining and/or coating concrete. The material uses a mild acid to lightly etch the surface and remove mild efflorescence. Using ETCH & CLEAN instead of muriatic acid gently increases the porosity of the surface without damaging the substrate chemicals necessary for subsequent acid staining, thereby allowing better penetration of the stain solution. DO NOT USE MURATIC ACID to prep!

ADDITIONAL PRODUCT INFORMATION

BrandBold Brilliance Concrete Acid Stain may be applied to properly prepared and thoroughly cleaned concrete. As with all Concrete Acid Stains you must follow all steps to ensure your desired outcome:

• Step 1 - Thoroughly clean concrete (BrandBold Etch & Clean, DO NOT USE MURATIC ACID)
• Step 2 - Concrete Acid Stain (BrandBold Brilliance Concrete Acid Stain, 14 Different Colors)
• Step 3 - Neutralize Stain & Degrease and Clean residual residue (BrandBold Neutralizer & Degreaser)
• Step 4 - Seal the finished product (This makes the concrete show the color you will see on the swatch)
  • BrandBold Concrete Offers 3 different sealers depending on the look you and your environment
    • BrandBold UltraSeal 5000 (Best Look, Solvent Based)
    • BrandBold UltraLow VX (Low V.O.C Sealer for VOC Compliance)
    • BrandBold HydroSeal (Water Based Sealer)
• Step 4B - BrandBold EZUltraWax (Mop On Wax, Interior Only, Optional)

• Cost-effective & versatile
• Elegant & permanent
• LEED compliant
• Maintenance free

FEATURES:

• No complex mixing required
• Ready to use
• Just Spray on with Conical Tip Sprayer (Available in the BrandBold Concrete Acid Stain Kit)

NET COVERAGE RATE:

• Coverage is dependent on the age, porosity, weather, and composition of the concrete. A definite coverage rate cannot be determined because every scenario is different. However, as a general rule, 300 square feet per gallon should be average yield.

APPLICATION:

• Dampen the surface with clean water. Apply the material with a pump sprayer and scrub with a nylon brush. Do not allow ETCH & CLEAN to dry on the substrate, as this will result in a white deposit that can only be removed with another application of diluted etcher. Once cleaning is complete, wash or scrub the surface with clean water, rinsing away all cleaning solution. Let the substrate dry (1-2 hours) before proceeding with the application of the stain.

All steps must be followed to achieve desired outcome. The color of the bottle may also be a different color than you expect, this is the stain formulation and it will render the final color after the reaction occurs and sealer is applied. Final colors will vary from color chart as colors may appear different on computer screen than actual stain.
