the looser Italian will rust stain remover power is designed to pulled iron deposits out of stone rust whether it be from the inside elements such as maybe leaving a can all around on a piece of marble or the B from actual iron oxidation within the stone itself well how do you use rust stain remover well simply it comes in an 8 ounce by volume by weight is going to be your powder and it's going to come in a pallet form and then you simply will take the powder put it into an out bowl or a cup add a little bit of water you just going to add a little bit of water to it and we're going to make this into a toothpaste type consistency toothpaste peanut butter type consistency too much liquid and you know take longer to evaporate the idea of what with the rough stain remover is we're willing to try to pull the rust out of the stone using a poultice generally the way the poultice is work if we're going to take put it over the stone of the stain over the rust we're going to cover it with saran wrap or with press the seal we're in some way to slow down the evaporation of the water process and let that let the poultice pull the rust pull the iron out of the stain so here we can see the type of consistency that we're looking for it's more of a gooey consistency so the way we apply is say this was our stain of a rust stain we're just simply going to put it over the rust just like so we're going to make it into I'm going to have it about a quarter of an inch maybe half inch thick covering our rust area then we're going to take our press and seal or our grilled or our plan rap and we're going to cover this over just like so and then using blue tape painters tape masking tape you can even use black tape if you choose any type of tape and all we're going to do is we're going to coat cover over and seal the air out of this just like so and what we're going to do is by sealing this off it slows down the evaporation process so we want to do is we want the stone to breathe not from the outside down but we want to stone debris from the inside coming up through the stone through and pull letting the poultice pull the stain up and out into the poultice then what we're going to do is now that we have this we can see we've pressed this down into us into our stone and we're just going to take a poke poke a couple of holes using tiny holes you can use a fork you can use a knife you can use a toothpick you can use whatever you'd like just a few holes and what this is going to allow it to do is to slowly is keep as much moisture in there as long as we possibly can let it slowly evaporate pulling those pulling the stain out of the stone into the poultice and the poultice goes down into the pores of the stone reacts with the the iron the rust inside the stone and it's going to pull it out so by poking these tiny holes allow us to let 24-48 hours to pull that out the one concern that we need to make sure that we're everyone is aware of is that rust because it is an abrasive it is an acid it will have a tendency to etch calcium based stones marbles travertine those kinds of things no problems on granite but it will etch marble so we need to make sure that we pull that if we are doing want to use it on marble that we test it very very carefully first otherwise we love having an edge into the marble let this dry out 24-48 hours then it's going to be come up hard it's going to be hard powder we're just going to simply remove it and then go scrape off our excess this is still wet but it will become become a powder that we just removed with a putty knife or a razor blade or whatever we want to move it with take our virtual cleaner clean off our excess and then our stain will be removed
