Description
ROCK POWER MICROBIAL is a fast working, economical and natural oil contaminate remover. Activated MICROBES in a specially designed liquid suspension penetrate concrete substrates and completely digest oil contamination, converting it into naturally occurring by-products such as carbon dioxide and water. THIS PRODUCT IS ECO-FRIENDLY AND IS ENVIRONMENTALLY SAFE FOR HUMANS, PETS, PLANTS AND AQUATIC LIFE.
Uses
ROCK POWER-MICROBIAL is designed for the removal of any and all hydrocarbon or animal fat contaminants (including motor and cutting oil, animal fat, fuel oil, kitchen grease, etc.) from a wide variety of substrates such as bare or sealed concrete, quarry and ceramic tile, decorative stone and composite flooring. ROCK-POWER MICROBIAL is formulated in two versions:
SURFACE (Microbial “S”)hydrocarbon/petroleum-based products or
FOOD-GRADE (Microbial “F”)lipid-based fats/proteins (grease, cellulose, starch)
Typical Coverage
Depends on the size and contamination level of the surface.
Physical Properties

Limitations & For Best Results
- Ambient and substrate temperatures much be kept between 40° F & 100° F during cleaning. At colder temperatures the microbes become dormant. At higher temperatures the microbes will die
- The microbes must have water and either a hydrocarbon or lipid based “food supply” to live and work. Without water or food they will go dormant until both are available.
- Microbes cannot survive contact with most cleaning products.
Product Use / Application
- This product may be applied with either a spray or a brush. The affected area must be agitated with a brush, manually or with a power scrubber. (This is determined by the size of the area to be cleaned.)
- The solution must not rise above 100° F, and must not dry out. Water must be present at all times.
- Cleaned area may be rinsed off after a minimum application time of 20 minutes. The complete remediation process may require repeated applications.
- After application, the solution can be collected, stored in containers and re-used several times.
Product Storage
DO NOT subject this product to temperatures below 40 F, and in excess of 120 F. Used solution is non-flammable, and may be stored in open containers.
