This is a post that is COMPLETELY different than a normal post here but this product deserves some "props".....We picked up this new product at work called Speedy-Clean Concrete Dissolver. This is the best product that I have ever seen for removing concrete and mortar off of equipment. Even better is it's acid free! All you do is spray Speedy-Clean Concrete Dissolver on the equipment, wait, then wash it off with cold water. Unless there is an excessive build up of concrete the one application seems to be enough to remove most concrete. This stuff is really amazing! We tried it on an concrete trowel with a pretty significant build up of both old and new concrete and with in a short period of time all of the concrete was dissolved! The paint remained untouched and looked as good as when we started! This product can be used for a lot more than just a concrete dissolver or remover though.
We have had reports that this product also works well for removing the film of grout from the surface of tile after new installations or re-grouting. It can also be used for exposing aggregate in decorative concrete work. This is just a really cool product!

I tried a different product called "Liquid Hammer" and found it to be much more effective. This product worked better and was about half the price of the Speedy Clean. You can find the product information on line at liquidhammer.com
Try it you will like it.
If you are in the UK/Europe and cannot get hold of this stuff then please e-mail me and I will get it for you. It really does work. I recently got concrete splashes on a neighbours felt roof and it stayed there for almost a year. I removed it without a trace or damage to the felt. Works with car bodywork/soft tops, glass, and all delicate materials as well as cement mixers and tools. Beats replacing the roof, re-sprays, glass replacement, tool replacement, etc
