If the white pad / felt and soft sponge becomes impregnated with
resin and can no longer be cleaned, they should be replaced.
Let the material harden completely without walking or using the
area for at least 24 hours or longer based upon application
temperature, see notes above.
Do NOT COVER the grouted surface with any material, plastic,
tarp, cloth or others for 24 – 48 hours under normal temperature
conditions. If covering is required, because of rain or to protect the
surface, do NOT apply the covering material (plastic, tarp, cloth,
etc) in direct contact with the grouted surface. Potential
condensation may discolor the material and form carbonation that
will be impossible to remove after hardening. In this case, the
covering material should be placed at least at 48” distance from
the grouted surface leaving good air
circulation and assuring the area grouted is kept well ventilated.
USING HAZE REMOVER TO REMOVE MARKS
Spray or pour HAZE REMOVER onto the surface to be cleaned with
the help of a clean white pad / felt. Leave soaking on for 15-30
minutes ,do not let it dry.
Then use again the same white pad / felt rubbing the surface in a
circular motion.
Rinse with clean water and a clean soft sponge and dry immediately
with a clean, dry cloth. Do not wait for the water to evaporate as
marks would form again on the mosaic surface.
WARNINGS
• The product can only be applied for grouting transparent or
artistic glass mosaics with joints not exceeding 1/8” (3.175 mm).
• Apply the product preferably at temperatures between 65 and
75°F. Do not apply at temperatures very low or with high humidity
to prevent the formation of surface carbonation which could affect
the uniformity of the color.
• Remove any excess product promptly from the surface of the
mosaic while still soft. Once hardening has taken place, the
product can no longer be removed unless mechanically, with
serious risks for the final result of the work.
• Mix the two components (A+B) correctly as indicated above.
• Change the cleaning water frequently.
• Prevent the water from entering the joints that are still empty
while cleaning
• Change the white pad / felt and sponge when saturated with
product.
• Do not wait more than 72 hours for the final cleaning with the
Haze Remover
• Do not use or walk on the newly grouted surface for 24 hours or
longer depending upon application temperature.
• Do not cover the newly grouted surface with any material to
prevent the formation of condensation that would lead to surface
carbonation on the product, altering the uniformity of the color. Wait
at least 24-48 hours depending on the temperature before
protecting the surface avoiding condensation.
• For the maintenance and cleaning of grouted surfaces with
Starlike
®
Crystal we do not recommend the use of bleach. If bleach
is not properly diluted and well rinsed, it can lead to a yellowing of
the grouting and this could be
visible especially on light colors.
• The product cannot be used for grouting tanks containing
aggressive substances permitted for intermittent contact only (see
chemical resistance chart shown in the technical data sheet).
• Do not mix the product with water, solvents or any other products.
Small spots or residues of product can
be removed after 24 hours or at any rate
after grout hardening (the time of
hardening depends greatly on the
environmental temperature), using the
specific cleaners HAZE REMOVER.
Please read the relative technical data
sheet for correct use.
