ECOGUARD™ CONCRETE POLISHING SYSTEM

ECOGUARD Pre-Grind

The GREEN alternative to an easy first grind

for polished concrete floor applications

Concrete Earth ECOGUARD Pre-Grind is a water based concentrated, non-hazardous biodegradable cleaning and etching compound. It is formulated for preparing concrete surfaces for easier grinding using higher grit metal diamonds on the first cut to obtain a quick and clean exposed Salt n' Pepper surface, or a clean Cream polish finish using low grit resin diamond abrasives. ECOGUARD Pre-Grind is formulated using organic acids and surfactants made from naturally occurring materials, which makes it safer to use and just as effective as traditional hydrochloric or phosphoric based solutions.

BENEFITS:

  • An excellent surface cleaning and etching compound
  • Permits the use of higher grit metal bonds on the first grind/cut
  • Easy to apply by plastic pump up sprayer
  • Higher grit abrasion first grind promotes a consistent Salt N' Pepper finish
  • Degreases and emulsifies oil, grease and other dirt in one application
  • Leaves a cleaner surface with reduced diamond wear and labor costs
  • Green solution and very user friendly (no smell or fumes)
