Masonry Chemicals

Cleaning and Sealing New Masonry

Masonry chemicals covers two jobs on a wall: getting the mortar off the finished surface, and keeping water out of it afterwards. We stock the Prosoco Sure Klean line for both, so you can wash down new brick, block and stone and then seal it once it has dried out, without chasing a specialty supplier for the second half.

Sure Klean 600 is the general purpose acidic cleaner, the one most masonry crews keep on the truck. Diluted with water it dissolves mortar smear, construction dirt and efflorescence on new brick, tile and concrete, and it is easier on the surface than muriatic acid. When the staining is metallic rather than cement based, 800 Stain Remover is the right product: it lifts the green vanadium staining out of buff and white brick, along with straw stains and acid burns, and it is the one to use on walls where the mortar carries color. On the sealing side, Weather Seal is the water repellent, with a Natural Stone Treatment version built for limestone, marble and travertine that soaks in without changing the color of the stone or leaving a film on it, plus a Paver Enhancer for concrete pavers.
