Description

Sweep in compounds are used more and more these days on natural stone patios as they are much easier and quicker to use than traditional pointing methods. The one drawback is they can leave a surface residue on the stone that can create a barrier to penetration from a sealer.

Smartseal Residue Remover is specially formulated to remove surface residue and contamination from natural stone paving where 'sweep-in' compounds may have been used.

Unlike other acid or alkaline based cleaners, Smartseal Residue Remover is a powerful ecological cleaner that, does not require any neutralisation process before application.

The residue remover should always be used before applying a natural stone sealer when a sweep-in jointing compound has been used.

** Disclaimer- product is designed to remove the invisible resin film left by a sweep-in jointing compound prior to sealing - NOT VISIBLE STAINS left between the joints.
