Specifications for Phos Power - Phosphoric Acid Based Cleaner Concentrate for Concrete, Grout Haze, Calcium, Lime, Rust & Mineral Removal
I'm your secret weapon.
Phos Power is a concentrated phosphoric acid-based cleaner formulated to effectively remove calcium, lime, rust, efflorescence, water scale, oxidation, soap and body fats, concrete, render, grout haze, plaster, algae stains and most stubborn mineral-based stains and residues. It also cleans and brightens aluminium and alloys too!
Phos Power, unlike traditional hydrochloric acid cleaners which cause corrosion, will act as a corrosion inhibitor and rust converter, which eliminates damaging rust and metal fatigue. It’s effective on scale and rust deposits on toilet bowls, urinals, shower and bathroom areas, and painted surfaces. It is ideal for cleaning boats, fibreglass, metal surfaces, concrete, bull bars, aluminium trays, tiles, aluminium, concrete mixers and much more.

Deep Cleaning (bottle and bucket use)
1. Dilute at 40:1 (40 parts water and 1 part Phos Power). That's 98% water and 2% Phos Power (20ml of Phos Power in a 750ml bottle). Add the water first, then the Phos Power, to avoid foam and speed up the filling process. For deep cleans or extreme cleaning, use a stronger mix of Phos Power between 2:1 (333ml of Phos Power per litre) and 4:1 (200ml of Phos Power per litre).
2. Apply the product to the surface. Allow for 5-10 minutes of dwell time.
3. Agitate with a suitable scourer, brush or high-pressure water.
4. Rinse with water.
5. Pick up excess moisture and allow it to dry.

2. Test a complete tile in a small inconspicuous area using the following technique to ensure you and your client’s expectations are achieved. Once complete, inspect the tile closely for any imperfections from the manufacturer, transport or the tiling process before quoting or starting the job.
3. Remove all dust, grit, sand etc from the surface via a powerful dry vac. Remove any other foreign material that may cause scratching in the agitation process like blobs of grout, grout haze, paint, plaster etc.
4. Apply product liberally to the surface via a mop, brush, doodlebug, bucket or watering can.
5. Agitate immediately into the surface. Choose the method of agitation that is suitable for the surface to be cleaned and the soil type. ie. floor scrubbers, doodlebugs, deck scrub brushes, high-pressure water blasters etc.
6. Let the solution dwell on the surface for 5-10 minutes then agitate again applying more diluted product or water if required.
7. Remove the slurry with a powerful wet vac.
8. Rinse the surface thoroughly and remove the liquid with a powerful wet vac. Repeat steps 1-8 if required.
Handy tips
• Always test first in an inconspicuous area before using any cleaning solution. Play it safe, especially when you use a product for the first time. Better to be safe than sorry. Some surfaces can be sensitive to moisture and particular chemical types.
• Always neutralise and rinse the surface sufficiently after use. Mopping or rinsing the surface with XO2® Bobby Dazzler is recommended at 20:1 after using Phos Power.
• Always keep the surface wet whilst using Phos Power. Do not let Phos Power dry on the surface. If the surface appears to be drying, apply more diluted Phos Power or water liberally.
• Be aware that existing floor sealers, treatments, coatings, paintwork and non-ferrous metals (especially aluminium and brass) may be adversely affected by Phos Power. Always pre-test.
• Do not use Phos Power through detergent pickups on high-pressure water blasters or through the solution system of automatic floor scrubbers.
