question for cleaning cement floor in restaurant

[curt johnson]

I have a friend that just bought a restaurant....it was a Native NewYorker Itallian place. They are re-opening this weekend and he asked me about cleaning the cement floors. They are stained (brown). There is a lot of grease and dirt in the walkways, what is best product to use to clean? I'm guessing I should use my Turbo to rinse but what's best to cut thru the grease and grime?

I have Prochem Powerburst on truck......what other options should i consider???

Prochem's Renovate would work good on that and it doesn't leave a residue.

Curt,

Do some research...But TSP...is on of the BEST DEGREASER'S...on the market...!

You can use as a booster to a degreaser or on its on... :idea:

TEST a small area...FIRST...!

Haven't checked yet but PROCHEM used to have a product that STILL contained TSP... :idea:

ps I believe it was called WIDE-RANGE cleaner...bad Stuff...!

Judson has a product called GOSH..That is AMAZING...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey we use that stuff too. It can be diluted down so low it can be used as a glass cleaner (we don't use it for that) or it can be used straight out of the jug in a spray bottle to remove difficult fire stains on drywall. Carefull it can pull paint at the strength!

If its stained concrete, will solvents remove the dyes ?

"Drive Up" you can get it at O'rileys auto parts, its real good for grease stains on cement, cheap too, only about 8 bucks a gallon!

HydroForce Peroxiblast powder with hot water and your Turbo.

Stained concrete in restuarant?

It probably looks terrible.

Hit it with Judon. Scrub with a 175. Rinse using a spinner. Then apply a new finish.

Eazy peazy..

Is there epoxy on the floor?

If not what type of sealer is sealing the stain?

If there is an epoxy coating on floor, is there a floor finish atop of it?

Pics?

How smooth is the concrete?

If you are going to hitting with the turbo start with a lower psi.
