Product Description

RXSOL-13-1048-025 Masonry Brick Cleaner,is a professional inhibited acidic masonry cleaner. Acid masonry cleaners are established for removing mortar/cement residues, efflorescence and mineral deposits, but overly strong acid can attack mortar and certain masonry, so the application instructions need proper dilution and surface testing.

MASONRY BRICK CLEANER

Product Code: RXSOL-13-1048-025

DESCRIPTION

RXSOL Masonry Brick Cleaner is a powerful, fast-acting acidic cleaner specially formulated for the removal of mortar residues, cement deposits, lime deposits, efflorescence, rust stains, mineral scale and construction-related staining from brickwork and masonry surfaces.

The product combines powerful acid cleaning action with wetting agents and corrosion-inhibiting components to penetrate stubborn mineral deposits and rapidly loosen cementitious contamination from the surface.

Its concentrated formulation allows the product to be diluted according to the severity of contamination, making RXSOL Masonry Brick Cleaner suitable for both heavy-duty post-construction cleaning and general masonry maintenance.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

1. Surface Preparation

Remove loose dirt, dust and heavy pieces of mortar mechanically before chemical cleaning.

Thoroughly pre-wet the masonry surface with clean water, particularly when treating porous brickwork.

Protect adjacent surfaces, vegetation and equipment that may be sensitive to acidic cleaners.

2. Dilution

The optimum dilution should always be established by carrying out a small test area first.

Cleaning Requirement	Recommended Starting Dilution
Heavy mortar / cement deposits	1 part product : 1–2 parts water
Heavy construction residue	1 : 2–3
Normal masonry cleaning	1 : 3–5
Efflorescence / mineral staining	1 : 5–10
Light cleaning / maintenance	1 : 10–20

Start with the weaker recommended concentration and increase strength only when necessary.

Always add the cleaner slowly to water. Never add water into concentrated acidic cleaner.

3. Application

Apply the diluted solution evenly using an acid-resistant brush or low-pressure chemical sprayer.

Allow sufficient time for the product to react with the contamination.

Visible bubbling or reaction may occur when the cleaner contacts cementitious or carbonate-containing deposits.

Do not allow the cleaning solution to dry on the surface.

For stubborn contamination, light agitation with an acid-resistant brush may be used.

4. Rinsing

After cleaning, rinse the treated surface thoroughly with large quantities of clean water.

Ensure that loosened deposits and residual cleaning chemical are completely removed.

A second treatment may be applied where exceptionally heavy deposits remain.

HOW to USE Descalex Polymer Heat Exchanger RXSOL-40-1048-025?

Descalex Polymer is a specialized chemical descaler formulated to remove scale, rust, and mineral deposits from heat exchangers and similar equipment. Proper usage ensures optimal cleaning efficiency while safeguarding equipment integrity. Below is a comprehensive guide on its application:

1. Pre-Cleaning Assessment:

Inspection: Evaluate the extent of scaling and contamination within the heat exchanger.

Oil and Grease Removal: If the system contains oil, grease, or sludge, pre-clean with an appropriate degreaser, such as RXSOL-10-1005-025, to enhance descaling effectiveness.

2. Preparation of Descaling Solution:

Concentration: Prepare a solution by mixing Descalex Polymer with fresh water, typically at a concentration ranging from 2.5% to 10%, depending on the severity of scaling.

Solution Color Indicator: The prepared solution will exhibit a red color, which fades as the acid neutralizes during the cleaning process.

3. Cleaning Process:

Circulation Method: For effective descaling, circulate the Descalex Polymer solution through the heat exchanger.

Soak Method: For smaller components, immersion in the descaling solution is suitable.

Temperature: Heating the solution up to 60°C can enhance the descaling process.

4. Monitoring and Neutralization:

Solution Monitoring: Observe the color of the descaling solution; the red color will disappear upon neutralization. If necessary, reactivate the solution by adding more Descalex Polymer until the red color reappears, but avoid doing this more than twice.

Post-Cleaning Neutralization: After descaling, circulate a 0.5% solution of Alkalinity Control in fresh water through the system for 2-4 hours to neutralize residual acidity and passivate metal surfaces.

5. Post-Cleaning Rinse:

Final Rinse: Thoroughly rinse the system with fresh water to remove any remaining chemicals, ensuring the system is free from descaling agents.

Safety Precautions:

Material Compatibility: Avoid using Descalex Polymer on materials such as aluminum, zinc, tin, or galvanized surfaces, as it may cause damage.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Always wear appropriate PPE, including gloves, safety goggles, and protective clothing, when handling chemical descalers.

Ventilation: Ensure adequate ventilation during the descaling process to prevent the accumulation of any potentially harmful fumes.

By meticulously following these guidelines, Descalex Polymer can effectively restore heat exchangers to optimal operating conditions, enhancing efficiency and prolonging equipment lifespan.

Remarks

RXSOL-40-1048-025 should not be used on Aluminium, Zinc, Tin, or any Galvanized Surfaces for which a special grade cleaner should be used. Chemical Cleaning Module Rx cleansers has developed a 280 litres capacity cleaning module, primarily designed for use with chemical acid solvents for descaling boilers, calorifiers, heat exchangers & other types of equipment where rust & scale form RXSOL-11-1008--DC Boilers, See Rx cleansers Practical Application Manual.

Formation of Calcium Sulfate is main cause for SCALE formation :::

The principal problem potential posed by sulfate ions in water is the possibility of calcium sulfate scale formation. Precipitation of calcium sulfate can occur when high concentrations of both calcium and sulfate exist simultaneously. There are three primary areas of water treatment in which calcium sulfate precipitation may occur boilers, cooling systems, and ion exchangers operating in the hydrogen or acid mode.

In boilers, calcium sulfate scale formation has been reduced to a minimum by modern treatment practices. The low hardness levels largely preclude calcium sulfate boiler scale. By contrast, cooling systems are subject to calcium sulfate scale deposition because the makeup is usually not treated for hardness removal. Cooling water is usually treated with sulfuric acid for pH control, and the makeup is cycled, i.e. concentrated. Calcium sulfate scale deposition can result unless the cycles of concentration are properly controlled in conjunction with the proper use of scale control chemicals. Cation ion exchangers regenerated with sulfuric acid also can pose a major calcium sulfate problem. Calcium sulfate precipitation can be avoided by controlling the acid concentration and the flow rate through the exchanger.

MASONRY BRICK CLEANER
Fast-Acting Inhibited Acid Cleaner for Brick, Masonry & Construction Residues

One important change from the Corium wording: I would not publish “will not harm most finishes or damage paint coatings.” That's too broad for an acidic masonry cleaner. Even commercial brick-cleaner documentation warns about acid-sensitive stone, decorative surfaces, metals and possible masonry damage.
Also, your existing RXSOL masonry-cleaner material already uses the professional approach of pre-wetting, controlled dilution, short contact time and thorough rinsing, so this positioning is consistent with the RXSOL range. (Rx-Sol)
