Moeller Stone Care HMK R163 removes grout and cement residue, heavy construction dirt, lime and calcium deposits, and efflorescence. For interior and exterior use. For professional use only!
 
HMK® R163 is an acid-based concentrated cleaner for removing cement and mortar residue, lime and calcium deposits, and heavy-duty construction dirt from all acid-tolerant natural and artificial stone, ceramic tiles, porcelain, brick, terracotta, clay tiled floors, and rough concrete surfaces. Not for use on polished surfaces. Suitable for interior and exterior use.
Note: Use the milder HMK® R169 Exterior Stone Cleaner if acid fumes are a concern. Do not apply in direct sunlight. Acid-sensitive surfaces such as polished and honed marble, limestone, agglomerates, and concrete products, plastics, and certain metal surfaces can be damaged by contact with acid-base products like HMK® R163. HMK® R163 is not suitable for latex/resin-modified grouts; consider using HMK® R180 Stripper as an alternative.
Instructions: Protect all adjacent surfaces. If under-floor heating exists, switch it off and allow the surface to cool to room temperature. Dilute HMK® R163 with clean water (1:4 to 1:20) depending on the level of contamination. Wet the surface with clean water and apply HMK® R163 with a scrubbing brush, stiff brush, or a suitable pad. Leave for a short time to work but do not allow to dry. Scrub the area again and remove the dirty liquid. Afterward, clean the area thoroughly using HMK® R155 Intensive Cleaner -acid-free- diluted with clean water (about 1:20) and remove the dirty liquid and then rinse the area thoroughly with clean water. Repeat the procedure in the case of very strong contamination. When using a wet vacuum we recommend that you add HMK Z702 defoamer to the water to regulate the amount of foam.
Coverage: About 50 to 550 square feet per liter depending on the rate of dilution and level of contamination.
