The Science of Citrus Cleaners - What makes Citrus King Work So Well?
   Most people know that natural industrial cleaners, made from highly refined orange oil, are great all purpose cleaners. More than that, they are all natural, heavy duty cleaners that get tough jobs done and are safe for people, pets, and the environment. So what is the science behind this? What's so great about these special formulas that contain an element so readily found in nature?
   The natural citrus solvents that these green labs are creating include a special formula. A highly refined solvent. The main purpose of the solvent's scientific make-up is to do two things. First, the highly refined orange oil solution actually liquefies grease and oils safely. That's right, it takes that caked on, nasty grease and oil and turns it into a thin liquid.
   The next thing these solvents do is they dissolve solids, like dirt, into tiny particles. This helps the surfactants found in these citrus cleaners do their job. Surfactant stands for Surface Active Agent. You will find this in any cleaning product you may use. The type varies, but any cleaning agent has to have one.
   Basically, what happens is that the surfactant is dissolved into the solvent. They line up at the boundary between the solvent and the solid. The solid is the dirt or grime we're trying to clean. The surfactant causes a chemical change in this boundary and is able to surround the solid to dislodge it from the surface it's attached itself to. Once these agents have done their job, the liquid washes the dirt away. This is what the liquid (like water) you've used to dilute the solvent is good for.
   So there you have the science behind why these citrus cleaners work so well. Scientists have to use powerful, dangerous chemicals to try to recreate this natural process in chemical cleaning products. It's not necessary. Our minds have been led to believe that dangerous chemical cleaning products are somehow better. They are not and now you have the science behind it.

What is Mastic Adhesive
Removing Glue, Adhesives and Tile Mastic
- It is always recommended that you test a small area first.
- After removing the tiles, you need to remove the excess mastic or glue. Use the Citrus King Tile and Mastic Adhesive Remover with a mop or sprayer. Soak the entire area you will be removing the adhesive from.
- Allow the mastic remover to soak into the adhesive for a minimum of 20 minutes until it becomes soft.
- Some adhesives may take longer. A second application may be required.
- Then, scrape off the remaining adhesive with a floor or razor scraper.
- For heavily applied adhesive areas, re-apply the Citrus King Tile and Mastic Adhesive Remover and allow the remover to soak for a few minutes, then scrape.
- Thoroughly wash and rinse flooring with water.
- Citrus King® recommends using a shop vac to clean up excess water off of the floor. This will also speed up the drying time for the floor.
- Allow a couple of hours to dry.
