Front 9 BARC
F9 BARC easily removes deeply embedded rust, battery acid and fertilizer stains from concrete, pavers, brick, stone, vinyl siding and many other surfaces. Follow instructions carefully for the type of surface you are cleaning.
Always test F9 BARC in an inconspicuous area before use to ensure compatibility and desired results!
Instructions To Clean Rust, Orange Battery Stains and Fertilizer Stains From Concrete:
1. Pre-Cleaning: Power wash concrete using a commercial grade pressure washer, our concrete degreaser and a surface cleaner. Rinse well. Cleaning the concrete first will open up the pores of the concrete and allow F9 BARC to soak in deeper and remove more of the orange battery stain than just applying F9 BARC alone.
2. After initial pre-cleaning, let the concrete dry completely.
4. Let concrete dry. Stains will disappear as concrete dries.
5. If spots remain follow directions in step 3 again. If not, proceed to step 7. It is better to go heavier on the first application and lighter on the second application. On the second application you may use less product on the areas with less staining and more product on the areas with stains remaining. It is acceptable to mist-spray on this application.
6. Let concrete dry. Stains will disappear as concrete dries.
7. A natural by-product of the reaction of this product and the concrete are light and dark mineral salts. Wet the concrete with water to reactivate the F9 BARC cleaner. While wet, lightly broom the concrete to help F9 BARC penetrate the concrete even deeper. Do not let concrete dry. Rinse LIGHTLY with a pressure washer to remove remaining surfactant. Do not use a surface cleaner here. Allow concrete to dry completely and evaluate results.
Warning: Applying F9 BARC to colored concrete or manufactured stone may remove color from the surface.
Instructions To Clean Specific Substrates:
Semi-Porous Substrates: Stucco, Plastic, Vinyl, Asphalt, Stone and others. Dilute F9 BARC 1:1 to 2:1. Spray at a rate of 400 - 800 ft. per gallon. Do not let product dry and rinse immediately following disappearance of stain.
Porous Substrates: Concrete, Bricks and Pavers. Require a heavier concentration due to porosity and the need for deeper penetration. Dilute F9 BARC 1:2 (1 part water to 2 parts BARC). Spray at a rate of 400 - 800 ft. per gallon. This applications requires F9 BARC to DRY INTO the concrete and lock in. Follow instructions listed on product and watch all F9 BARC videos before application.
