Product code RXSOL-13-1048-025
An all purpose cleaner for brick and masonry, quickly and efficiently remove mortar residue, wood and rust stains.
RXSOL-13-1048-025 Masonry Brick Cleaner,is a professional inhibited acidic masonry cleaner. Acid masonry cleaners are established for removing mortar/cement residues, efflorescence and mineral deposits, but overly strong acid can attack mortar and certain masonry, so the application instructions need proper dilution and surface testing.
MASONRY BRICK CLEANER
Product Code: RXSOL-13-1048-025
DESCRIPTION
RXSOL Masonry Brick Cleaner is a powerful, fast-acting acidic cleaner specially formulated for the removal of mortar residues, cement deposits, lime deposits, efflorescence, rust stains, mineral scale and construction-related staining from brickwork and masonry surfaces.
The product combines powerful acid cleaning action with wetting agents and corrosion-inhibiting components to penetrate stubborn mineral deposits and rapidly loosen cementitious contamination from the surface.
Its concentrated formulation allows the product to be diluted according to the severity of contamination, making RXSOL Masonry Brick Cleaner suitable for both heavy-duty post-construction cleaning and general masonry maintenance.

OUTSTANDING PROPERTIES
RXSOL Masonry Brick Cleaner provides a combination of strong chemical cleaning and excellent surface penetration.
The active acidic components react with cementitious and mineral deposits, helping break down and loosen deposits so that they can be removed by thorough water rinsing.
The incorporated wetting system improves contact between the cleaner and contaminated surface, particularly on porous masonry.
The product is supplied as a concentrate, allowing the operator to adjust cleaning strength according to the type of substrate and severity of contamination.

Dosage
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
1. Surface Preparation
Remove loose dirt, dust and heavy pieces of mortar mechanically before chemical cleaning.
Thoroughly pre-wet the masonry surface with clean water, particularly when treating porous brickwork.
Protect adjacent surfaces, vegetation and equipment that may be sensitive to acidic cleaners.
2. Dilution
The optimum dilution should always be established by carrying out a small test area first.
| Cleaning Requirement | Recommended Starting Dilution |
|---|---|
| Heavy mortar / cement deposits | 1 part product : 1–2 parts water |
| Heavy construction residue | 1 : 2–3 |
| Normal masonry cleaning | 1 : 3–5 |
| Efflorescence / mineral staining | 1 : 5–10 |
| Light cleaning / maintenance | 1 : 10–20 |
Start with the weaker recommended concentration and increase strength only when necessary.
Always add the cleaner slowly to water. Never add water into concentrated acidic cleaner.
3. Application
Apply the diluted solution evenly using an acid-resistant brush or low-pressure chemical sprayer.
Allow sufficient time for the product to react with the contamination.
Visible bubbling or reaction may occur when the cleaner contacts cementitious or carbonate-containing deposits.
Do not allow the cleaning solution to dry on the surface.
For stubborn contamination, light agitation with an acid-resistant brush may be used.
4. Rinsing
After cleaning, rinse the treated surface thoroughly with large quantities of clean water.
Ensure that loosened deposits and residual cleaning chemical are completely removed.
A second treatment may be applied where exceptionally heavy deposits remain.
