Removing Leaf Stains from Concrete Pavers from Dry-Treat

Before and After

Dirty Concrete Pavers
Surface Type: Concrete Pavers
Products Used: STAIN-PROOF™ Original & Oxy-Klenza™

Johrina from Australia Blue has had extensive experience over the years with cleaning and sealing porous surfaces. On this particular project, there were 200sqm (2000 sq. ft.) of concrete pavers that required sealing but more attention was needed on this particular 30sqm (300 sq. ft.) area.

The area needed heavy duty cleaning. Because it was next to a bush, the tannin from falling leaves stained the pavers. The surface has also accumulated dirt and grime over time. Johrina had to be very careful on what chemicals she were to use as the pavers were installed at least 8 years ago and there were signs of aggregate being exposed. Harsh chemicals were not an option.

It was also important that the sealer did not change the look of the material.

SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS:

  • Permanent premium protection
  • Superior water and oil-based stain protection
  • To make the surface easier to maintain
  • Does not change the look of the surface
  • Does not change the slip resistance of the surface

oxy-klenza THE DRY-TREAT SOLUTION:

For cleaning, harsh chemicals were not an option, as it would damage the already-thin surface of the concrete pavers. It is also important to avoid acidic cleaners. Johrina used our outdoor surface shampoo, Oxy-Klenza™ to get the job done. Oxy-Klenza™ is an odorless, oxygen-based outdoor surface cleaner that cleans stains caused by moss, mold, oils, food and general grime. This alkaline cleaner is suitable for removing leaf marks as well. For more stubborn stains, Oxy- Klenza™ can be used as a poultice.
