User questions & answers

Question:	What is the dilution rate for red brick pavers
Answer:	Yes. I think so. It's not going to clear a blizzard. But last winter I was facing a shoulder replacement and it did just what I needed preop when I had little arm function. I think if you just tilt it back a tad so edge does catch in the grass you should be able to remove enough snow for a path. It is very easy to use and I'm pleased with my purchase.
Question:	Does this product contain an inhibitor to prevent metal loss when using as a descaler
Answer:	About 8 inches then you use your own 3 prong extension cord. I have a 50 ft. Cord I use.
Question:	is this a good cleaner for trex deck
Answer:	Interesting question. Some suggestions: the device has a GreenWorks 4-year warranty with the standard disclaimers about abuse, etc. I would first call GreenWorks Helpline, 1-888-909-6757. The user manual discusses how to change some parts like the belt, impeller, and scraper, but nothing on the four vanes. The user manual also shows all parts and the vane is part no. 3410999A-10. I don't know if that is for all four or just one, but GreenWorks Helpline should be able to, well, help. Lastly, depending upon how the vanes are broken, you might be able to bolt some metal straps to them to hold them together as a temporary fix. Good luck!
Question:	Will this remove grout and haze in the tiny pores in my newly installed porcelain tile
Answer:	The Snapper SXDSS82 82V cordless snow shovel will only throw the snow forward, away from the unit.

Question:	Is it safe for copper pipes
Answer:	Hello-Our heavy Duty Acidic Cleaner (HDAC) is intended to remove cement grout hazes from tile and stone. However, when you get the pigment itself caught in the micro pores of the porcelain it can be a tough to get that pigment out. Which the HDAC probably wouldn't be capable of doing for you.Thank You-MSCTechnical Support Team
Question:	Is this good for colored ceramic toilet bowl
Answer:	I'm an 80 year old 220# Grandfather in fairly good shape and anything except self propelled snowblowers is TOO heavy and cumbersome to operate on a sloped surface. If your lives in Southern Florida it might be alright.

User questions & answers

Question:	Do you have to drain the water out of the toilet bowl before using
Answer:	The acid is hydrochloric acid, which is the same chemistry as muriatic acid; and therefore does works equivalently.
Question:	What the difference between this product and the one in the yellow bottle
Answer:	Yes you can find them at Home Depot or Lowe’s. They used to carry the gallon jugs as well but only have the refillable ones now.
Question:	Does it clean the water holes under the rim where the water enters the bowl
Answer:	The acid is hydrochloric acid, which also referred to as muriatic acid.
Question:	Will this dissolve a plastic ball that was flushed in my toilet
Answer:	I wouldn't even try. I would use vinegar on a humidifier.
Question:	Is this product safe for septic systems
Answer:	Yes, you just pour it in & let it sit for 30 -45 min. Amount used depends on your toilet's water capacity.
Question:	Does this work as well as muriatic acid on the scale inside the toilet
Answer:	This is made for porcelain and I doubt it's safe for copper. If you have copper pipes exiting to your septic or city lines, I wouldn't use this product. If you have a copper toilet, I wouldn't use it for that either. Fingers crossed for you!
Question:	Has anybody found an applicator refillable bottle to use on toilets with this product
Answer:	I do not know. I used it on a white ceramic toilet bowl.
Question:	What type of acid is in Zep Acidic toilet bowl cleaner
Answer:	Jay, try 1 part HDAC and 10 parts water. The water can be reduced if you need a stronger solution.

User questions & answers

Question:	is this safe for septic tank systems
Answer:	Like you ,I tryed 4 or5 products. None worked. My cousin works in a retirement community, she said try Zep Com. Acidic cleaner.I put it in the toilet bowl ,swirl it around,let it stay there over night .Next mourning, again , used toilet bush,everything came clean. I tryed the gel also didn't work as well .
Question:	will this descale a glass shower door
Answer:	Product Description paragarph above says: "It is safe for septic tanks, drain lines and water treatment systems."
Question:	can you get the top off to refill the bottle
Answer:	CLR is amazing for hard water issues. But like CLR, there are ways to make this product better (and viable for hard water). Apply this to toilet paper (so it's wet) then stick it all around your toilet (or sink or whatever. Well, nothing alive preferably). Or the other way around, doesn't matter. Go to bed, and by the next day even the worst issues can be flushed away - no scrubbing needed. If you missed a spot, repeat as needed (which, honestly, should only be once).
Question:	what is the acid percent
Answer:	No. Apply the Zep Acidic Toilet Bowl Cleaner under rim and around the sides. Wait 5 minutes, then use a bowl brush to scrub. Flush once to rinse.
Question:	How much Hydrochloric Acid does this contain
Answer:	This is the same product. The yellow bottle is the updated packaging.
Question:	Will this dissolve calcium and lime deposits from toilet bowl? I have tried several different products with no luck
Answer:	Yes, absolutely. Apply under rim & around sides, wait 5 minutes, then use the bowl brush to scrub. Flush to rinse.
Question:	Is this product safe for septic tanks
Answer:	I would guess not, it comes in a plastic bottle! You need a snake and remove the toilet and push it out the way it went in I think might be the only way if it's not going down. all it will cost you is a new wax ring.
Question:	Why is this only recommended for toilets and not other hard water build up? my bathroom sink has it bad all around the faucet, can't scrub it off. thanks
Answer:	Absolutely. When used as directed, it won't disrupt or upset bacteria action in septic tanks.

User questions & answers

Question:	can I leave on for more than five minutes
Answer:	Wouldn’t recommend this product as it needs “soak” time to work. CLR should help you with that as it descaled our shower head pretty effectively. Besides the toilet, Zep might be ok for stained sinks or bathtubs if you can have it sitting in those with water for 10 minutes or so although the drain might get discolored if it’s not rubber,plastic or stainless steel.
Question:	is it safe to use on rust stained concrete
Answer:	Never had a need to remove the top; only to turn to open or close.
Question:	What is the pH
Answer:	I don't know but it won't hurt u i use it with my bare hands
Question:	What type of acid
Answer:	5-15% Hydrochloric acid; muriatic acid; hydrogen chloride; HCl1-5% Sulfamic Acid; amidosulfonic acid; amidosulfuric acid1-5% Quaternary Ammonium ChloridesPro tip, Google the MSDS: http://content.rpgov.net/dpw/right_to_know/DPW/Zep%20Acidic%20Toilet%20Bowl%20Cleaner.pdf

User questions & answers

Question:	How many bottle are in an order
Answer:	I haven’t used this on concrete and I don’t know for sure; however, it does not harm the toilet bowl at all. No abrasion. It seems tough on stains but gentle on the porcelain.
Question:	Is this a squeeze bottle
Answer:	I looked on my bottle and I didn't see anything about ph, sorry I couldn't help ya with your question
Question:	One bottle weighs 36 pounds
Answer:	It's 10 percent hydrochloric acid, sometimes marketed as "muriatic acid." Lime stains are mostly calcium compounds, which are a base, and dissolve easily in the presence of acids. Any acid will work, including vinegar, although it's not as strong.
Question:	How many bottles do I get
Answer:	We’ve used it and haven’t had any problems with our septic tank.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this product safe if the runoff gets on plants
Answer:	I actually poured it into toilet and walked away and forgot about it, went back much later and it did not hurt the toilet. However, the product overall for me did not work any better than what you get at supermarket. I won't buy it again.
