How do I clean a vinegar stain on a sealed garage floor?

Question

Dmholt4391 · Answer

Have you tried soap and water. Bleach may have to be a part of this too.

Sue keisling · Answer

Yes but the vinegar etched the sealant. The floor is clean. Where the bucket sat it destroyed the finish.

Hi, Sue!

If the vinegar ate through the finish, the sealant may have to be reapplied in that spot. I hope this helps!

I agree that you will have to re-apply the sealant once you have washed any vinegar residue away.

Wash off the vinegar with plain water, then reseal when it is dry.

Hi Sue, hope this helps you.

Sweep or dust mop the floor to remove loose soil
To mop, mix 2 gallons of warm water and 2 teaspoons of dishwashing liquid in a bucket or sink. Do not use harsh cleaners, which can break down and dull the sealant.

Or

Rinse the floor with fresh water and air dry.

Mix a solution of 1/8 of a cup liquid dishwashing detergent, ½ cup baking soda, and one gallon of water. Use a soft brush to scrub the mixture into the stain. Rinse, or use sawdust to absorb the soapy water. Sweep the sawdust away.
