could it be the barc? Barc does brighten up concrete quite a bit.
Good question. There was didferent colors of the concrete initially but Iâll look into that more.
I think I can maybe get it. The rep said I could get hcs400 not sure if thatâs more gentle though? Iâll ask the homeowner about the sealer though it could definitely be a factor I wasnât aware of!
Hcs400 is a degreaser and wonât do anything to whiten the concrete. Itâs the best degreaser I have ever used though. You can spray it on that black grease on concrete that you see leading into the back door of restaurants and rinse it away with a garden hose. Itâs amazing stuff.
I think you should try rinsing again and see if it foams at all. I used onerestore before and had a heck of a time rinsing it off, and I rinsed ALOT. It wasnât until I got the foaming to stop that it would dry without the discoloration.
Youâre right renting it takes forever I rinsed it so much and still so much foam kept coming up that after I knew for a fact it would be safe I actually tasted the water on the ground to make sure it was just water lol. Iâm actually starting to think that it mightâve been the barc. If you pour bark on concrete and do a side-by-side comparison with one restore they both make the concrete that really bright blue white color. However maybe the bark works better or differently somehow it makes it more blue. Iâm going to try using that next Iâll post an update.
