Questions about Blaster

Blaster is a hydrochloric acid (muriatic acid) heavy-duty concrete remover concentrate, diluted 5:1 with water before use. It is the strongest cement dissolver in the Slide Off line.
How do I mix Blaster with water?

Can I use Blaster on aluminum?
Blaster is listed for steel and rubber. Test painted and aluminum surfaces first, and call 314-266-4600 with questions about a specific surface.
When should I use Blaster instead of Slide Off or Slide Off+?
Blaster is for the build-up a milder concrete dissolver leaves behind, on ready-mix mixer truck drums, chutes, and plant equipment that have gone too long between cleanings. The other 2 concrete products are Slide Off, ready to use, and Slide Off+, a foaming 5:1 concentrate.
What PPE does Blaster call for?
Wear acid-rated gloves, eye protection, and a face shield. Read the label and the SDS before use and wear the PPE the SDS calls for; a Safety Data Sheet ships with every order.
Can I let Blaster dry on the surface?
No. Spray or brush the solution onto cured concrete and leave it on until the build-up softens, but do not let it dry; then pressure-wash the softened material away and repeat on heavy deposits.
Do you sell Blaster by the tote?
Yes. Blaster comes in a 55-gallon drum or a 275-gallon tote. Drums ship 4 to a pallet and each tote takes a pallet position of its own, with freight calculated at checkout on the pallet count.
