🧪 AGAR Acid Wash 5L

Powerful Acid-Based Cleaner for Rust, Scale, Lime and Grout Removal

Restore the cleanliness of compatible surfaces and equipment with AGAR Acid Wash 5L, a highly concentrated, acid-based cleaner developed to dissolve stubborn rust, mineral scale and lime deposits. Its specialised formulation also contains detergent to remove oil contamination from surfaces being treated, providing an effective solution for demanding descaling and restoration tasks.

Dishwashing machines, hot-water urns and other equipment can accumulate mineral deposits over time, affecting cleanliness and maintenance efficiency. Similarly, newly installed ceramic tiles and brickwork can retain excess grout or mortar after construction. AGAR Acid Wash helps dissolve these unwanted deposits, making them easier to remove through appropriate cleaning and rinsing procedures.

  • 💧 Effective Descaling: Removes lime and mineral scale from suitable equipment.
  • 🧱 Grout and Mortar Removal: Helps remove excess grout and mortar from ceramic tiles and brickwork.
  • ⚙️ Equipment Maintenance: Suitable for descaling dishwashing machines, hot-water urns and other compatible equipment.
  • 🏭 Food-Processing Applications: Suitable for acid clean-in-place (CIP) cleaning of compatible food-processing equipment.
  • 🛡️ Stainless Steel Compatibility: Designed to clean without corroding stainless steel when used as directed.
  • 💰 Concentrated Formula: Provides economical use through task-specific dilution.
  • ♻️ Environmental Features: Biodegradable and non-flammable, with packaging that can be recycled or returned for reuse through suitable programs.
