Just turn your heat on high and your psi up to 2500. Use a 17 inch turbo hybrid. It comes right off:biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:

I do school kitchens every summer with that flor in them. I've found hot pressure washing with a wand that adjusts from a straight stream to a fan spray works best.

You'll figure it out.

Viper Renew to soak and break up the rust and calcium. Maybe use a floor scraper to speed it up.

Then a strong degreaser (Viper Venom is great) to cook the grout, rinse and repeat.

I finished off the above floor with a phosphoric acid concrete brightener to whiten the lines, but it may not be necessary in your case.

Time, about four hours for that mess. Allow time to soak, so maybe six.

No doubt a turbo-whatzit would help too, but the crusty stuff needs to be cheesed out and dissolved.

I found my turbo to be of less utility than the power wand I mentioned ^^

Matt, I would bring a gallon of Wink Rust Remover from Walmart also. Mop that stuff around a bit.
