TEKA Teak Cleaner - What is in it?
Keith,
If you are speaking about 'basic chemistry' {sorry about the pun}, any weak acid should do. My recommendation for something simple, cheap, and readily available . . . VINEGAR. Quickly throw a bucket of water on the spill to dilute it as much as possible, then toss on some Vinegar and swab the area with a towel, etc. It's Acidic Acid at a 5 percent dilution. Available at your local supermarket in GALLON sizes. Really useful stuff . . . I use it for initial cleaning and mix it with denatured Alcohol for 'holding' epoxy tools. It also makes a very good weed killer. Not 'systemic', but gets rid of the 'above ground' green part in about 24-hours. Regards & Good Luck, Ron Magen Backyard Boatshop "Keith" wrote in message oups.com... Not exactly, but A is very caustic (basic) and B is a neutralizing acid. Get extra B when you buy the stuff to neutralize it when you get it where you don't want it. |
