Cal Clean is NOT and acid. It is Acidic but just as a lemon is not acid nor is coke and acid they are all acidic.

I'm not a chemist by any means but that makes no sense to me. Lemons contain citric acid, Coke contains phosphoric acid.

By that logic I could mix 50% water and 50% hydrochloric (pool) acid and say it was not an acid but it was acidic. No matter what I call it, it would still etch concrete....

Where's that Forsythe guy?

Ok talked with Justin at advanced. Cal Clean is NOT and acid. It is Acidic but just as a lemon is not acid nor is coke and acid they are all acidic. What happened on the marble shower and to the concrete was in effect the calcium being brought to the surface. The calcium should cone off with a neutral cleaning solution Like their floor an more (amazing product neutral degreaser) Then sealed with either a stone sealer or enhance and seal. If the marble was etched no amount of sealer would hide etching. Isn't possible as etching is damage to the surface and it would enhance that damage NOT hide it.

This product is hands down the best calcium remover I have ever seen. You can see the pictures and either try it yourself or not and I am ok with that but if you have more questions or want to tray it give me a shout. And if you do use it you should get the cal block and stone enhance sealer to really wow your customer.

The cal block has been on our outside windows since the middle of the summer. We have close to the hardest water in Utah where we moved to. Our windows turn nearly white in a month from the sprinklers (high wind area as well) and with cal block on them the last half of summer/fall I didn't have to go out and clean them cal clean. Cal Block works on most any surface you want to protect

IMO this has been a very poor product introduction, can I suggest someone do a detailed demo with picture\video on several types of stone & other surfaces, why not have Cal Clean explain & defend their product for themselves?

Lots of claims being made but very little evidence being provided!

(another joke of an MSDS if you ask me).

so if the calcium is drawn to the surface, what is left in it's place?

Thats proprietary or didn't you read, the sealer fills the void & fixes all other problems.

Exactly how far down does this product go into the stone & draw out the calcium?

That's where I have in issue with the explanation... If the calcium surfaces like that, then it has to effect the smoothness of the polish. In other words there is "etching". Even if it looks good after an enhancer is applied.

You took his place, now come up with a solution for us, for this is what we pay you for!!!

 

[dgardner]

umm, ahhh....

John, an enhancer is suppose to do just that, enhance, or darken etching, or corrosion, on the stone surface to almost what it looks polished(depending on stone).

What it won't do is restore the polish or shine.

There are always exceptions to this, especially very absorbent stones


Put some on polished marble, from what I gathered, it's going to etch it.

Being WRONG about any part of this could be very expensive.

 

[jmo]

So it sounds like you should only use it on ceramic or porcelain.

 

[Jim Nazarian]

Hey Mike,

What instructions came with the product?

How did you fix the problem?

Would you use it on marble?

 

[Mikey P]

Haven't got around to fixing it yet.

I have to coordinate with plumber to remove the fixtures.

Ill monkey grind it.

I just saw the rest of this thread. I think I'm actually dumber from reading it. I stopped on the first page after I saw the insanity of an explanation posted. This is the most irresponsible, asinine explanation of a product I have seen in my life.

It's acidic, but not an acid, like a lemon is acidic, but not an acid? So dentists are full of shit and citric acid is a lie? I want the 30 years of my life back.

"You see your honor, I did run into him with my car, then I went home, BUT IT WASN'T A HIT AND RUN"

I'm going to go bang my head against the wall until I fall asleep, because that's the only thing that will ease the pain of reading this. There needs to be a new word invented for this, because retarded doesn't even begin to describe it. Actually it literally is retarded, by definition, but still.

Tomatoes are poisonous.

Is this your kitchen or a customers? I would imagine the customer is pretty annoyed by now.

 

[Mikey P]

My kitchen


Yes, she's annoyed
