Brick Acid

[bodders13]

Will Brick Acid clean old plaster and tile adhesive from kit. If not any ideas on what else can use?

Cheers

No good on Gypsum based products,just for cement based. If plaster just soak and scrape.

that's an expensive way to clean tools - what's wrong with the old fashioned way of washing tools as you go along and oiling after the working day - or is this a dinosaur method - with all the technology today is there any self cleaning & oiling tools on the market :RpS_thumbup::RpS_lol:

Vinegar for brushes. Water for trowel

[beddy]

Yeah my mistake. Its bbq sauce for brushes

I'm with you. I clean everything from trowels to buckets and even plastic 6th protection sheets. Still got a Mt carbon which gets a wd40 after every use

I wouldnt put trowels in to soak, but if ive got any brushes that are knackered from backing coats ill stand them over night and they come up spankers.

Vinegar will clean your trowels of Gypsum products but does leave carbon steel black dosent seem to affect the performance of the trowel through, if the tile adhesive is cement based acid will do the job but don't leave it on for to long as I will eat your trowel.

 

[beddy]

You'll eat his trowel?!

 

[bodders13]

As long as it comes out clean and shiny the other end he can eat it!
