Anyone have any experience with 2790 for concrete cleaning? Does it out clean others, any side effects like do I need to mask or protect surroundings areas?

I remember a few years ago everyone was talking about how great on tile and grout it was. No one in my area sells it thinking about ordering some.

Probably the most product out there. Wear gloves and eye protection. Know how and when to use it.

A little chem in the eye makes you more careful next time.

Wearing eye protection is an absolute must for all chemicals. Even just glasses. Like fastening your seatbelt, just do it.

You guys must slop chems all over the place when mixing. I have never splashed in my eyes, maybe I’m just lucky.

Hopefully your luck continues and we don't have to call you, "ol one eye".

Or haven't mixed enough yet

I'm certainly more careful with some than others too

My "emergency eye wash station" is plugged in to the front of the TM
....It's the garden hose

A liquid with a pH of 14 is an accident waiting to happen. My suggestion is that you use powders if you think you need such a high pH. At least with powders the alkalinity is not immediately active and you will handle it in a more diluted form as a ready to use liquid.

A local cleaner spilled the concentrate of something with the same pH on his sneakers when he was mixing it, and ignored it as he cleaned for a few hours.

Ended up in the hospital and almost lost both feet.

You also have less chance of a splash in the eyes of the concentrate.

Davis brought some of that stuff home from a show.

It sat on my wood work bench for a few months untested.

The black stain is still there.

The sample bottle couldn't contain it.


No way.


Way too Cobbish

Do you have a powder that you use?
Name of product if you don't mind.

Viper Peroxiblast as Mike showed. Most powders with sodium percarbonate added use a small amount. We use at a level so that it is equal to adding 1 ounce of Boost All to a ready to use gallon. We also have Viper Venom Powder and I have heard of a lot of customers using Flex Powder on tile and grout.

Flex is about as good an all-rounder as my chemical pimp has.
The Viper line is excellent, too.
