I received a 16oz sample of Carlos last week and set it aside for a job I had today.
1. The was the sample was much smaller that promised just 16oz when I was told a gallon would be coming my way.
2. There were no mixing instruction,application instructions or MSDS.
3.Clear in color and a mild smell reminiscent of Formula 409 household cleaner.
Now on to the meat and potatoes of the review.
After watching Micah's review and seeing Carlos' video I was able to figure out the mix ratio.
I mixed the 16oz sample with 1 1/2 gallons of water and xjetted it to the area I chose to clean at the job site(not the dirtiest part of the property).This is a 15day account that sees high traffic in the drive thru.I allowed the EBC to dwell for 15 minutes while I cleaned other parts of the property.The treated area was then cleaned with 210 degree hotwater and rinsed.
Did the EBC clean? Yes
Did it clean better than the Lava(caustic mix)I currently use? No
Does it have a home in our cleaning arsenal? Maybe,just not for cleaning restaurant concrete
I have tried alot of products in the last 10yrs and have found few that live up to the hype.IMO,the EBC falls into the average performance catagory.You can see the before and after pics,as well as,a side by side again Lava on my facebook page.
