What is the best way to remove ice melt residue?
A. For surfaces that are resistant to acid attack, we recommend Multi-Purpose Acid Cleaner or MAD, mild acid detergent. The Multi-Purpose Acid Cleaner is hydrochloric acid based and will quickly and effectively remove most salt residue. MAD is phosphoric acid based and is less prone to damaging surfaces on skin. It too, will effectively remove most salt residue but not as quickly as hydrochloric acid products. Both products should complete the job within 5 minutes. If a surface is vulnerable to acid attack, such as marble or Formica, we recommend Soap and Scum Remover It is a alkaline cleaner which will remove most salts although at a slower rate than acidic products.
