How to use Delco's Clean-Crete™

Note: This page contains large detailed photos. Please allow extra time to load.

Vehicle traffic, the continuous dropping of oil, solvents, grease and other messy stains will cause the typical concrete pad to eventually look "worn." The lane that is shown in the picture below is in very poor shape, and some of the spots have a thick "goo" on top.

Dirty Traffic Lane with oil and grease stains.

Be sure to thoroughly remove all trash and debris in the entire lane before proceeding.

Apply Clean-Crete to the most soiled areaas.

Once you have finished clearing the lanes, apply Delco's Clean-Crete™ directly on the most soiled areas. Using a long handled ice scraper lightly scrape off the excess oil and grease residue, adding Delco's Clean-Crete™ to this excess as you scrape.

Wire bursh vigorously to work in Clean-Crete(tm)

Once the excess oil and grease residue has been removed, use a wire brush to vigorously work in Delco's Clean-Crete™ until the soiled area is staying the same color as the original product.

Use G-Pad to work in Clean-Crete(tm)

Using your SPI G-Pad, work Delco's Clean-Crete™ into the stained area. Again, continue until the product stays a nice white color in appearance. This is crucial in the application. The G-Pad insures that you have penetrated the upper layer of the stained area.

Sweep out Clean-Crete(tm) over entire area.

Now that you have the area cleaned and prepared, simply sweep out Delco's Crete-Clean™ over the entire area and you're ready to finish the lane.

Using Mako Applicator to apply Clean-Crete(tm)

Simply apply Delco's Clean-Crete™ to the rest of the surface, making sure that you lay an even coat over the entire lane. The Mako C-1 applicator will make fast work of this! Normal coverage for Clean-Crete™ is 2,200 square feet per 20 pound container.

Spread and sweep up excess Clean-Crete(tm)

Going with the "grain" of the surface spread and sweep off the excess Clean-Crete™ and return to your mixture. If you have severely affected Delco's Crete-Clean™, DO NOT add back into your mixture. Discard this contaminated product as per local regulations.

Gum Removal

  1. Spray directly on the gum mineral spirits. Allow to soak for approximately 30seconds.
  2. Take a long handled ice scraper and peel off the gum.
  3. Apply mineral spirits to the "shadowed" area below the gum and wire brush.
  4. Once you have the shadow in a liquid state immediately apply Clean-Crete™ to the area and continue to wire brush.
  5. Sweep off excess product.
