Rust Remover contains a special blend of chelates for removing rust stains from stone. By utilizing the stain process reversal technique, the rust stain remover draws the stain out of the stone.
As a rule of thumb, if a stain goes in, it can come out. This applies about 98% of the rust stains encountered. It is just a matter of finding the correct rust removal process to draw that stain out. For rust stains near the surface or on the surface, we recommend using our rust poultice or this liquid rust removal product. However, for deeper stains in the stone, some have used the follwoing technique.
Using Both Powder & Liquid Rust Remover
Some customers have reported achieving excellent results by using the powder and liquid rust removers together for tougher rust stains in stone (Please see the note below if you plan on treating polished marble surfaces with any rust remover product).
Usage Instructions
The product is packaged ready for use. Simply complete the following steps to remove rust stains form your stone:
- Clean the surface to be treated and make sure it is dry.
- Leave the rust remover on the stone for at least 1-2 hours.
- Rinse the treated area.
- For complete action, steps 1-3 can be repeated.
Note:
This rust remover is a corrosive substance and you should avoid contact with metal, wood or ceramics. Additionally, this rust remover will remove the polish from marble that has been polished. So, if it is used to remove tougher rust stains from marble, the affected area will need to be repolished after the stain is removed. As previously mentioned, using this rust remover will physically remove the polish from the stone, making the surface look dull. Some have misinterpreted this as a stain. However, it is not a stain, it is a side effect of removing the rust stain from the stone. On calcium based stones, such as marble, removing the rust will leave a dull spot that you will need to correct by using etch remover to replenish the luster. Afterward, you will need to reseal the spot that you treated using a marble stone sealer.
