About Concrete Rust Stain Removal
Concrete easily gets rust stains. As mentioned above, there are many possible causes of concrete rust stains for the exterior of your home. The thing you may not know about concrete is that it is more delicate than you may think. Some people may try to use solutions like vinegar and lemon, but these don’t penetrate to the root of the stain. Other stronger solutions and pressure washing done wrong can pit your concrete, causing damage. Even good quality concrete experiences accelerated wear from high-pressure washing.
Concrete is a porous substance as it contains millions of microscopic and submicroscopic voids. As water is applied, it fills the space between the particles which decreases the permeability. High pressure power washing to remove rust stains and grime accelerates damage to the concrete. Many homeowners have high pressure power washing done every year, and when performed by an inexperienced technician who doesn’t use the proper pressure and solutions for safe concrete rust stain removal, yearly damage expands exponentially until the concrete becomes brittle.
