Frequently Asked Questions

How much area will one 1-gallon container cover? When diluted correctly, one gallon of Gator Efflorescence Cleaner covers approximately 200 square feet. Always perform a small test patch on a hidden 4-square-foot area first to verify results.

Can I use this on newly laid pavers? No. Never use this product on fresh concrete pavers. Allow at least 60 days after initial installation before applying the cleaner. Furthermore, if you used Gator Polymeric Sand, let it cure for a minimum of 48 hours at temperatures above 59°F with zero rain exposure before cleaning.

What is the proper mixing ratio for the application? Dilute the concentrated liquid to 4 parts clean water to 1 part Gator Efflorescence Cleaner. Using a concentration stronger than this recommended ratio can cause discoloration on your pavers.

Is this cleaner safe to use around my landscaping? Because it is formulated without harsh hydrochloric acid, it is safer for surrounding landscape elements than traditional heavy acid washes, provided you rinse thoroughly and follow all application instructions carefully.
