Acid floor paint.

For stubborn stains use muriatic acid in combination with your pressure washer set to at least 1200 psi. Apply the acid according to the manufacturer s instructions. Spray the acid stain with the spraying wand about a foot and a half above the ground. Use baking soda on the cleaned area to neutralize the acid and rinse.

Acid etching is the process of applying hydrochloric muriatic or buffered phosphoric acid to a slab then rinsing it off with water. Then pour the acid based stain into a handheld airless sprayer. Allow it to soak for a few seconds and rinse. Make sure that the sprayer is primarily plastic because the acid will corrode any metal parts.

When you apply the acid stain the lime deposits in the concrete are what react with the acid giving the flooring its different coloring. For many years it was a standard method of concrete preparation used by nearly all industrial commercial and institutional floor coating installers depending on the floor size and system to be installed. Spray it evenly across the floor.
