Lithofin Rust-ex Cleaner is a clear, nearly colourless liquid that removes rust stains and residues of metal oxide from all natural stone, porcelain and ceramic surfaces. Being mildly alkaline, it is safe to use on limestone. Applied for no more than ten minutes, it produces a visible reaction by turning purple, and works by turning rust into water soluble particles which can then be rinsed off using water and a dash of Lithofin MN Power-Clean. This patio cleaner doesn't change the appearance of the surface, so it can be used on individual stains. One litre covers approximately 10m2.

Installation Ancillaries Calculator
Use our handy, in-page, calculator to find out how much pointing product you require to install your paving.
The calculator automatically updates with the required amount based on the quantity of paving you have inserted in the spec-chart.
Simply tick the ‘add to order’ boxes and then the ‘add to basket’ button to purchase.
Please note, the calculator provides accurate figures based on our recommended installation method. On-site variables can lead to more/less material being used.
If you would like a different colour grout with your paving, we recommend adding the recommended quantity to basket from the pointing product page, as the in-page calculator only allows you to add our recommended colour to basket.
