    Surface Cleaner Clay

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Surface Cleaner Clay.
    Press this sticky clay onto finished surfaces to remove specks of dirt, flecks of paint, and other particles that are not easily washed off. Also known as detailing clay, it pulls up even microscopic contaminants that dull the finish and prevent coatings from bonding to the surface. Use it to prep painted and coated surfaces before applying wax or polish. Spray your surface with water to keep the clay from sticking—this clay will still pick up particles when it's wet. Knead and stretch the clay between uses.

    Remove grease, oil, and dirt from your concrete floors.
    Etching Cleaner—Etching cleaners prepare unfinished concrete for coating and patching. Often used in warehouses, light manufacturing facilities, and machine shops, they leave a rough, etched finish for strong coating adhesion. Pour these cleaners onto your floor and scrub with a stiff-bristle brush or broom.
    Non-Etching Cleaner—Non-etching cleaners are primarily used to clean finished concrete. They leave a smooth finish that’s ready for applying a protective coating if desired. They do not leave any etched markings, which can weaken concrete surfaces. Dilute these cleaners with water. Apply them to your floors with a mop or automatic scrubber.
