Pj,

 

You can use the Stonecare Central Acid  based tile and grout cleaner to attack the efflorescence. Or you can purchase a product from Prosco chemical called masonry cleaner and dilute and use this to remove the efflorescence. Be careful with the Masonry Cleaner.  Be sure to neutralize the stone after the cleaning.

Thanks Freddie.

 

Does anyone have any recommendations on a brand of phosphoric acid or other products to remove mineral deposits/efflorescence?

Hi PJ
I have not done the job yet. The customer wants to do some other work and she is not ready just yet. When I start I will let you know how it went. As for the advice for the customer. I had got some good information from the forum. I don't recall who told me but they had mentioned that the minerals in the water where leaving deposits on the surface. The customer is going to put a water filtration system on her house. She told me that she always want to do it and know here has a good excuse for her husband.

Freddie, how did this turn out? I just looked at a shower that has a similar problem, so I was wondering if you used the SCC phosphoric acid and how it worked for you? How many applications did it take?

 

I am relatively new at this, so this is my first time working with slate. Do you have any advice on what I can tell the customer in terms of general upkeep and maintenance? Thanks!
