Here we are neutralizing the acid after treating multiple times for efflorescence. We are using a degreaser but baking soda is another option as well to neutralize the acid. If you fail to do so, an adverse reaction with the sealer will occur if mixed with the acid and not neutralized.

[0:31] simply do to neutralize it is we use a degreaser so the guys are going to the truck now we're going to get some degreaser we're going to hit all this area with the greaser to neutralize that acid and then rinse it off and that's it that's all you have to do and from there
