Material & Application Notes
Water-Based, Bio-Degradable Concrete Remover SpecBlast is a chemically active, water-based liquid designed to soften and remove concrete buildup from tools and equipment. It is an effective alternative to more damaging methods like sandblasting or jackhammering, protecting equipment from physical damage while efficiently cleaning.

Why Contractors Choose It
Contractors choose SpecBlast to improve release, reduce cleanup, protect formwork, and keep concrete placement moving.

Application
Apply SpecBlast directly using a brush or spray to the concrete surface or mortar needing removal at approximately 75 sq ft per gallon. Immersion is highly effective if possible. A light foaming action will occur which helps in softening the concrete. Allow it to soak and agitate as needed. After the concrete softens, a second application may be necessary, allowing it to sit for about 10 minutes before scraping off. Repeat if necessary, and for final removal, power washing is effective. Note that concrete buildup over 1/4 inch may require multiple applications.
Packaging
Available in 275-gallon totes, 55-gallon drums, 5-gallon pails, and 1-gallon jugs (4 per case).
Shelf Life
SpecBlast has a shelf life of two years when stored in the original, tightly sealed containers. Keep from freezing and protect from contamination such as water and dirt.
