Natural stones often contain traces of Iron, which may oxidise when they come into contact with moisture either from rain or cleaning. It can also occur when stone comes into contact with certain acid-based cleaners that contain ingredients that can accelerate the oxidisation process. This would include some brick acids and cement removers. The result of this oxidation is that the stone develops rust and discolouration. LTP Ferrex is specifically formulated to help remove these blemishes.
Interior & Exterior use
Acid based stone cleaner, which contains special rust preventing ingredients designed for long term effect.
LTP Ferrex alters the rust particles removing rust discolouration caused by iron in the stone or environmental influences.
Cement and salt residues are also removed.
Suitable for use on acid resistant natural stones including granites and slates. Not suitable for highly polished natural stone as the effect is limited or limestone and marble.
