How to Remove Efflorescence

...

Welcome to 2025! At Southeast Softwash, we’re kicking off the new year with a bang by introducing another game-changing chemical product: Efflo-Go. After months of research, development, and rigorous field testing, Efflo-Go is finally ready to revolutionize the way you handle efflorescence removal. Here's everything you need to know about this powerful product and how it can boost your cleaning business.

What Is Efflorescence?

Efflorescence is a common challenge in the cleaning industry, often seen on surfaces like:

  • Dumpster pad enclosures

  • Retaining walls

  • Flagstone patios

  • Subdivision fountains

It’s a mineral deposit that forms when water brings salts and other minerals to the surface of a material, leaving behind a stubborn white film after evaporation. Efflorescence can originate from within the structure (“primary efflorescence”) or be caused by external factors like chemicals in water (“secondary efflorescence”). Regardless of the source, it’s nearly impossible to remove with pressure washing alone.

Why Choose Efflo-Go?

Efflo-Go is specifically designed to tackle efflorescence effectively and safely. Here’s what makes it stand out:

  1. Safe and User-Friendly: Efflo-Go contains buffering agents, minimizing fumes and making it safe to use on sensitive surfaces like glass and aluminum trim when applied correctly.

  2. Highly Efficient: A little goes a long way. With proper application, Efflo-Go delivers impressive results with minimal product use.

  3. Versatile Application: Apply it with a pump-up sprayer for targeted areas. While some cases might require light pressure, many jobs can be completed with Efflo-Go alone.

Demonstration Highlights

We recently tested Efflo-Go on a dumpster pad enclosure plagued by severe efflorescence. Using a straightforward application process, we achieved outstanding results without even touching the pressure washer. Here’s how we did it:

  1. Pre-Wet the Surface: This helps ensure even application and reduces product waste.

  2. Apply Efflo-Go: Use a pump-up sprayer to coat the affected area.

  3. Let It Sit: Allow the product to work for 5-10 minutes.

  4. Rinse: A simple rinse with a 12-volt system removed the efflorescence effortlessly.

  5. Repeat as Needed: For stubborn spots, apply additional coats until the surface is clean.

In our test, even the worst efflorescence we’ve encountered was no match for Efflo-Go. While most jobs won’t be this severe, the product’s performance under tough conditions proves its reliability.
