Cleaning Chemicals And Equipment Blog

Render cleaning chemicals can make a dramatic difference to the appearance of your house or any building and technological advances have made products safer for the environment and operators in recent times.

Whether it is a dwelling or school, has K-Rend coloured or painted render, pebble dash, harling or roughcasting, the walls will tend to suffer in our damp climate and need an algae remover or may have a whisky storage bond nearby that makes walls and window sills go black with mould.

Render Cleaning Chemicals

Green algae, pollution, dirt weathering and atmospheric traffic film are other factors to consider that can turn beautiful light shades and colours black or green and unsightly. One answer has been to apply a biocide-based chemical to kill the spores and algae on the render; this is often marketed as ‘soft washing’ and then leaving the weather to wash off the dead algae.

Ultra-Safe Render Cleaning Chemicals

RenderKleen is an innovative product that is part of our render cleaning chemicals range along with 4 others and is used for cleaning render via a very different process to the use of biocides or sodium hypochlorite. This is a non-toxic, odourless and non-hazardous aqueous cleaning solution that uses millions of nano-energy packages in the mix to penetrate under the soiling and algae on render to dislodge it and loosen it off.

The contrast to the killing action of biocides is the key factor in why our render cleaning chemicals are so safe to use. Biocides are disinfectants and while ‘hypo’ as it is called, is effective, it smells awful, the fall out kills plant life, ruins clothes, and who knows what it does to you, the operator?

Render Cleaning Chemicals

Using our chemicals means a quicker cleaning action and the process is very safe as the chemicals are food safe for operators and pets, lawns and even for aquatic life if they land up in a water course. Workers using RenderKleen render cleaning chemicals do not even need PPE, there are no hazard warning pictograms on the packaging and the product is delivered to the site in 5 litres or 20 litres jerrycans at ready-to-use strength for convenience.

A situation that could have been tragic with any other render cleaning chemicals arose where a contractor used a rubber tube and his mouth to try and siphon the chemical from 20 litre jerrycan into smaller bottles and got a mouthful which, in his surprise, he swallowed, and, apart from a funny taste, was fine!

Render Cleaning Chemicals

How Do You Apply RenderKleen?

It can be used by spraying on generously and several times or brushing with a Gardiner-type long-reach window cleaning brush pole then agitating with a semi-stiff broom or brush to help dislodge soiling, you will note a light foaming occurs that colours with the debris.

After this leave for 5 to 10 minutes, wash off, and reapply by sprayer – we always suggest that you try a test patch first. The products are ideal as a painted render cleaner but please be aware that if the paint is in a bad state, it can easily remove some in the same way it will give algae short shrift.

Can I Use A Pressure Washer?

Yes, you can – the key point is to use the pressure washer on fan setting and gently so as not to damage the render and do not bring the nozzle of the lance to close and concentrate too long on a small part of the render to not cause damage to the K-Rend.

Our eco-friendly render cleaning chemicals combined with a pressure washer makes a lot of sense as it helps penetration and, as RenderKleen can often liberate A LOT of soiling, you want to wash this away rather than letting some of it dry in situ – you can also use a standard garden hose for rinsing down.

Non-corrosive, non-acidic, non-toxic, and non-hazardous, this chemical is certified as food safe, and is safe to use near a water course. For cleaning of natural stone why not try our StoneKleen exterior stone cleaner?

BuildKleen is an effective and highly innovative mortar and brick cleaner chemical that is very safe and contains no acids; have you heard of a brick cleaner that is food-safe before?! The product is non-hazardous, non-toxic, and certified as food safe and needs no PPE when in normal use which is a refreshing change from hydrochloric acid and the safety risks it can bring while still highly effective.

Mortar And Brick Cleaner

If you are looking for an environmentally friendly and non-corrosive cleaner, then this is a great mortar and brick cleaner for you. You can apply with a low-pressure sprayer, sponge, roller or brush and scrub thoroughly and leave for five minutes or so for the cleaning to take place; often needs more than one application.

A pressure washer – used carefully – can also help with stubborn or very old dirt and with removing the loose dirt after application, however, a garden hose can also help a good deal as rinsing is important.

How Does It Work?

Using nano-technology energy packages this cleaning chemical penetrates deeply and dislodges algae, dirt and stains off mortar and brickwork by breaking the surface tension and lifting off the dirt – thus our expression ‘Cleans Not Kills’ because unlike biocides it does not kill anything and is pH neutral as well.

These nano-energy packages could be thought of as being like piranhas in the Amazon that are just milling around and waiting to attack and tear dirt away like piranhas would feed by tearing meat off the bones of their prey. A surface treated with this mortar and brick cleaner stays algae-free for longer and in our tests, natural stone absorbs rainwater in a more natural way that is almost like ‘breathing’.

BuildKleen is a pH-neutral masonry cleaner that contains:

No biocides or bleach.
No strong acids or alkalis.
Certified as food-safe
No odours

Eco-friendly brick cleaners are becoming more common and BuildKleen is a good value example of this trend. It is effective as a limestone and sandstone masonry cleaner of dirt and algae as it is pH neutral. The perfect cleaner for stonework and stone statues on heritage or listed buildings with a combination of aggressive action while gentle and safe to handle and as run-off and ultra-safe food-grade safety for cleaning staff.

The product is supplied in 5-litre containers and 20-litre jerrycans as shown above and is at ready-to-use dilution for maximum convenience. To see the power and effectiveness of BuildKleen please let us know if you would like a sample by email at info@acute.uk.com.

Using our BuildKleen industrial concrete cleaner chemical on garage or warehouse floors or patios can make your day easier, faster, and safer as this remarkable detergent in aqueous cleaning solution tackles dirt, rust, and algae on concrete surfaces with gusto.

Industrial Concrete Cleaner Chemical

What Is The BuildKleen Chemical?

A breakthrough in the formulation of detergent manufacture has led to this remarkable industrial concrete cleaner chemical which uses nano-energy packages for deep penetration to get underneath and loosen off soiling, rubber tyre marks and dirt for removal and a bright, clean concrete surface. This product is ideal for use with commercial floor scrubber machines.

Research has shown that the cleaner a surface is, the less dirt will grip it afterwards; this means that using this industrial concrete cleaner chemical not only provides a great remover of dirt but acts as a preventer of re-soiling afterwards as well.

It is good to know in times of disruption that BuildKleen is a UK-invented and UK-manufactured product that is eco-friendly with food-safe credentials and that the run-off is safe in drains and even in a water course.

How Is It Used?

To go about cleaning concrete with BuildKleen a user needs no PPE items although it can make sense to wear gloves if in prolonged contact. We suggest the following simple process for cleaning:

Brush any leaves, loose dirt, and excess dust away, there is no point wasting chemical until it can get into contact with the tough stuff to remove that is sticking to the substrate. If it is a hot day, it is a good idea to wet the concrete a little first.
Apply generously by puddling the cleaner, it is diluted as ready-to-use in the jerrycan. BuildKleen can be sprayed, brushed, or rolled on, if sprayed then please apply several coats methodically.
Agitate the cleaner with a broom or brush on the surface and aid the penetration with a good scrub, you should start to see the soiling in a light foam – algae will make it green for example.
Wait for about 15 minutes and then rinse off the cleaner either with a garden hose, buckets of water or a pressure washer if you have one.
You can see a video demonstration below of how to use BuildKleen industrial concrete cleaner.

What Does It Cost And How Do I Order?

For professional use it makes financial sense to purchase this ready-to-use concrete cleaner in 20-litre jerrycans – the cost for this is £80.00 + VAT + carriage and it can purchased online here:

It can also be sprayed but please ensure a generous quantity is in contact with the concrete that is to be cleaned and that this is both brushed in and rinsed off with a generous quantity of water when you are finished. This helps in moving dirt that was dislodged by the action of the cleaner.

Below: You can see the contrast with the cleaned concrete surface on the left compared to un-cleaned on the right.

Industrial Concrete Cleaner

Have you ever thought how little we clean the outside of our houses and gardens compared to the inside kitchen, bedrooms etc? Its quite a striking thought, isn’t it?

The sheer levels of filth from weathering, atmospheric pollution and damp-loving algae, lichen and so on that build up on garden walls and paths poses a considerable challenge to clean, even if cleaned once a year.

Paving Slabs Cleaner

Often the solution is seen to be pressure washing or calling in professional exterior cleaning companies with very strong sodium hypochlorite or acid chemicals that have the potential to ruin plants or lawns nearby and even cause chemical burns if proper masks and PPE items are not worn.

While these all have a place, you may find that a ‘domestic’ pressure washer does not have the penetration power of industrial flat surface cleaner models and can be hard work for a long and tedious time with less-than-ideal results (and very dirty for the operator).

Using an ultra-safe paving slab cleaner product called PatioKleen can be a real boon when cleaning your driveway or patio; its’ run-off is harmless to plants, pets or even in ponds and yet the cleaning action is effective at dislodging dirt and algae.

Steps To Follow For Application:

We would suggest the following simple process for exterior cleaning:

- Brush any leaves, loose dirt, and excess dust away – no point wasting chemicals until it can get into contact with the tough stuff to remove that is sticking to the substrate. If it is a hot day it’s a good idea to wet the surface a little with a garden hose.
- Apply generously by puddling the cleaner, it is diluted as ready-to-use and you can see a video here to show you. PatioKleen can be sprayed, brushed, or rolled on, if sprayed then please apply several coats methodically.
- Agitate the cleaner with a broom or stiff brush on the surface and aid the penetration with a good scrub, you should start to see the soiling in a light foam – algae will make it green for example.
- Wait for about 15 minutes and then rinse off the cleaner either with a garden hose, buckets of water or a pressure washer if you have one.
- You can see a video demonstration below of how to use the paving slabs cleaner – in this case with no pressure washer:

How Does This Paving Slabs Cleaner Work?

PatioKleen is a breakthrough in detergent formulation that uses tiny nanoenergy packages to penetrate deeply underneath the dirt and soiling to loosen it off and dislodge so that it can be cleaned.

It does this by electromagnetically breaking the surface tension that bonds dirt to a substrate and is astonishingly effective at dispersing soiling.

Paving Slabs Cleaner

It is a certified food-safe, pH neutral and ultra-safe chemical where users actually need no PPE items at all and yet has a powerful cleaner action making it perfect as a pre-treatment for concrete slabs to be hosed down or pressure washed afterwards without any harmful run-off.

Use of a power washer on low pressure setting or a garden hose is helpful to remove the loosened dirt and application can be by a spray can or watering can, paint brush or poured on generously.
