Polybind Efflorescence Cleaner
Stronger Cleaning Formula but Gentle to the Pavers
For concrete pavers, natural stones and wet cast stones
Description
Polybind Efflorescence Cleaner will remove any efflorescence stains trapped in the concrete pavers, wet cast products & natural stone pores. It will make the surface look more clean and vibrant without discoloring or damaging the surface.
This efflorescence cleaning is a necessary step before a sealer is applied. The sealer will be able to get a deeper penetration into the now clean pores.
