shop floor

[DustinC]

I have a nasty shop floor to do Sunday morning and I don't have any concrete cleaning specific chems on hand.I was thinking of adding 16 ounces of sodium hydroxide flakes to a 5er of glory truck wash to downstream with my 5.5 hot.Do you think this would be a good mix?would I be better off x-jetting?I'll be ordering some chems on monday but this job has to be done tomorrow.Thanks

hi Dustin

Traffic film remover - dergreacer maybe of some use as well on oil patchs
you might be abile to buy some of your local car wash.

Thanks Davy,I added another 8 ounces of s/hydrox to the mix and x-jeted it.3500 square feet of 30-year-old grease and oil with trash, nuts, bolts, spark plugs, etc underneath every piece of equipment in the building. Some knucklehead bid this at $300. the manager said he could not get in touch with him because he thinks he went out of business, go figure. i bid it hourly and had to use the turbo and some of the 1/2 inch thick stuff. i am now one of their vendors. Maybe I'll get all their shops on some sort of plan. The pictures don't do it justice, but believe me the 3rd one is clean.

Looks good, I see the flakes worked out. Did you use any glory for the doors or was this floor wash only? How long did it take you?

Hi Dustin

Looks like you done a good job there,
I do quite a bit of hard floor cleaning ie stone floors, slate, ceramic tiles
One of the chemical i use is a citra scrub really good on heavy soiled floors

Ps i dont use the pressure washer on these jobs as they are in side.

Hey Wesley,No walls or doors. They just wanted the floor.Its not quite finished but I had to stop after 5 1/2 hours because of going over budget. They want me to come back in two weeks to touch it up.
