EverFlor - Concrete Floor Cleaner - For Bare & Painted Floors

Why You Need to Clean Your Concrete Floor Before Painting

Floor paint bonds to whatever is on the surface, so dirt, light oil and tyre rubber need removing with a concrete floor cleaner first. Garages, workshops and warehouses build up a film of this grime over time. Leave it in place and your primer grips the film, not the concrete, then lets go once traffic starts. EverFlor Concrete Floor Cleaner lifts everyday dirt, grime and light grease from bare concrete, leaving a clean slab for priming. It's also made for concrete you just want clean, painted or bare.

How to Use It

Mix it with water, scrub it into the floor, then hose it off before it dries. All you need is a stiff broom and a hose, and it works indoors or out. You'll find the full step-by-step method, including the protective kit to wear, in the Application tab.

Routine Cleaning for Painted and Bare Floors

Once your floor coating has cured, the same concrete floor cleaner keeps it clean. It shifts tyre marks, light oil, workshop grime and tracked-in dirt. Mix it weaker for routine washes and stronger for heavy soiling. One 5 litre pack covers the weekly wash and a heavier clean. Use the same method on a painted floor, or on bare concrete you aren't painting.

Use It With

Once the floor is clean and dry, prime it with Deep Penetrating Epoxy Primer / Sealer or Polyurethane Dustproofer / Floor Primer & Sealer.

Is This the Right Cleaner for Your Floor?

As the everyday EverFlor cleaner, it handles all the cleaning most floors need before priming. Concrete with heavy oil or grease, or badly neglected concrete, needs EverFlor Degreaser instead. If bare concrete also needs etching, use EverFlor Etch & Clean. Cleaning doesn't replace mechanical preparation or etching where your coating's specification asks for them. Our guide on how to prep concrete for paint sets out the full sequence. For advice on your floor, our technical team draws on 140 years of experience: use live chat or call 01909 495708.
