HEG Concrete Etcher and Surface Conditioner

Achieve maximum adhesion for epoxy, coatings, sealers and overlays on prepared concrete surfaces that feature open pores and optimal texture. Powered by Syntech®, a proprietary synthetic acid technology from Heartland Energy Group LTD, this concrete etcher for epoxy floors profiles surfaces without the hazardous fumes or neutralization steps that are required by traditional muriatic acid.

Contractors and facility managers rely on Eco Etch as an acid replacement concrete etching solution to create ideal bonding conditions while removing efflorescence and residue. This concrete surface preparation chemical works safely around vegetation and requires only a simple water rinse after application. The H&C™ CONCRETEREADY™ alternative formulation delivers coverage up to 500 square feet per gallon and ships non-hazardous for safer handling on every jobsite.

MIXING

Slowly add one gallon of ECO ETCH to one gallon of water in a mixing bucket. (Mixing Ratio 1:1)

SOLICITUD

Work the floor in small 10×10 foot sections pouring the mixed solution out evenly over the surface. Scrub the solution around with a stiff bristle broom or by using abrasive bristle brushes from an auto scrubber and double scrubbing the area. Do not use the auto scrubber vacuum to pick-up the fluid. The etching solution will begin to fizz for a few seconds while being scrubbed. When the fizzing stops, rinse off the solution with clean water and move to the next section. Recover the solution. The solution should not be allowed to dry on the surface. Mist water on the surface as necessary to keep the surface wet until ready to rinse. When all sections are completed, rinse 3 times with clean water and scrub with a stiff bristle broom or auto scrubber while rinsing. This will ensure that no solution remains on the surface. A squeegee will aid in the removal of excess water. The surface should feel rough like sandpaper and water should be easily absorbed into the concrete. Allow the surface to dry completely before applying any coatings, paints, stains or sealers.

COVERAGE

Two gallons of mixed etching solution will cover up to 500 square feet.

DRY TIME

Allow surface 24 hours to dry before staining, sealing or coating.

Rinse empty container with water and discard as per federal,
state an local guidelines. Wash tools and equipment with soap
and water. Properly dispose of all soiled rags and keep all
unused product from freezing
