Looking to Remove Concrete?
As some industries know too well, concrete that has accumulated and hardened on surfaces where it is unwanted can be a huge nuisance to remove. A cleaning solution can be employed to aid in this process, but using a product that is not strong enough may lead to frustration, not to mention wasted time and money. If you can relate to this feeling, don’t worry- Concrete Slayer is here to help!
About Concrete Slayer
Concrete Slayer is an acidic cleaning solution whose main ingredient is hydrochloric acid (20%-30% by weight). It also contains carbamic acid (10%-20% by weight) and phosphoric acid (1%-5% by weight). This solution effectively removes hardened concrete from scaffolding, forms, ready-mix trucks, and other hard surfaces where concrete tends to accumulate.
The Benefits of Concrete Slayer
Concrete Slayer offers a number of benefits to users, such as:
- Nonflammable and noncorrosive
- Contains corrosion inhibitors that prevent surface damage
- Safe for a variety of materials, including ferrous metals, nonferrous metals, and painted areas
- Includes a spray wax that increases the shine of painted surfaces
- Sold in a 5-gallon pail and a 55-gallon drum
How to Use Concrete Slayer
Should Concrete Slayer be diluted before use? And if so, to what concentration? The answers to these questions depend on the level of concrete buildup on the surface. For surfaces with light concrete buildup, Concrete Slayer should be diluted to a 1:12 concentration. For moderate concrete buildup, a 1:6 concentration should be used. For heavy concrete buildup, a 1:3 concentration is best. And finally, for severe concrete buildup, Concrete Slayer can be utilized without dilution.
In addition, Concrete Slayer is an extremely acidic solution with a pH ? 1. Therefore, the proper safety precautions must be carefully followed when working with this product. Please refer to Concrete Slayer’s Safety Data Sheet for more information.

Getting to Know Naomi Davis
/in Scholarship Contest/by Industrial DegreasersNaomi Davis is a student at the University of Central Florida, studying social work. She is one of Ecolink’s six $500 scholarship recipients. We wanted to get to know a bit more about Naomi and her winning essay, so we asked. Here is what we learned about Naomi:
Naomi is a new student at Auburn University of Montgomery where she will major in social work. She plans to be a licensed clinical social worker so that she can help others and she would love to start her career in either Texas or Florida.
As a new college student, Naomi is taking her time to enter extracurricular activities while she adjusts to academic life. Starting college brings numerous incidental expenses so Naomi plans to use her scholarship money towards tuition.
Naomi is passionate about protecting the environment and believes the biggest danger to the environment is the carelessness of humans. She says, “We have a tendency to take Earth for granted.” For her part, she will continue to help the environment by using natural resources and products that will cut down on pollution and waste.
When asked what she would share with others over her environmental concerns? “Treat the environment like your house or apartment. You wouldn’t want pollution there, so don’t create it somewhere else.”
Ecolink is proud to award Naomi this scholarship and we wish her much success serving others in her career as a social worker. We look forward to seeing Naomi happily settled in Texas, Florida, or wherever her career and journey takes her!

While turpentine and mineral spirits may share some similar applications they are different as turpentine is derived from pine wood, while mineral spirits are derived from petroleum. However, because turpentine and mineral spirits are used in similar practices, many people consider them to be closely related. Some notable characteristics of turpentine are that it is insoluble in water, odorless, and contains poisonous ingredients like hydrocarbons.

Difference Between Acetone And Acetate
/in Acetone/by Industrial DegreasersWhat is the difference between acetone and acetate? To adequately explain the differences between acetone and acetate, it is important to define each individually.
What is Acetone? Acetone is one of the most common organic solvents available today. It is a highly flammable compound with a pungent odor that is easily recognizable. Acetone is often found in products like nail polish remover and in paint thinners. Being a solvent, it is also often used as a paint stripper and industrial cleaning agent. Other applications that involve acetone include the removal of dried glue, cleaning 3D printers, and laboratory processes.
Historically, acetone is said to have been first produced in the early 17th century by the process of distilling lead acetate. Various scientists in the following 200 years developed the chemical equation breakdown of acetone but the first industrial production of acetone was developed by Chaim Weizmann and naturally named the Weizmann Process.
What is Acetate? Acetate is, for intents and purposes a salt, that is formed when acetic acid is combined with an alkaline base. Broadly meaning, a negatively charged ion that is considered exempt from being a volatile organic compound (VOC)
The key difference between acetone and acetate is that acetone is a naturally occurring compound and acetate is an ingredient created as an additive for other substances. Acetate is a common additive in products like cosmetics, cleaning supplies, and textiles
While the technical and chemical jargon can seem to be confusing, contacting us at Ecolink and consulting our expert chemists and technicians, can help you to determine which product is better suited to your cleaning applications.
