Thanks, Chris.
We spent close to 4 years designing and improving this product. From 2004 through this year our team has performed around 4,500 jobs with F9. We are 100% confident we can answer any questions you have and get you up to speed quickly with our phone, email and technical support.
Chris- make sure to give me a ring on my cell 760-774-5306 before your first job. I'll walk you through the process, if you haven't done it before. The worst case stains are fertilizer and orange battery acid and it gets easier from there.
Yes, Paul at the Powerwashstore.com is carrying the product. He also did a recent comparison with F9 and another leading product that you can see here on some nasty brick staining that wasn't even rust related. F9 performed extremely well.
P.S. There is more to come! ;)

Here is our new video to help promote F9 BARC Rust Remover Applicators. Application is easy with F9 and we have a great program to back up professional contractors who are willing to increase their business, accept FREE LEADS, and get on our first page of google results. You won't find an easier product to apply and it works excellent on shingles, roofs and almost all surfaces. We have quite a few softwash guys who are already benefitting and making money with F9.
No John, just a lot of golf courses which means a lot of golf carts which means a lot of batteries

Orange battery stains are only a small part of it, but can be a BIG part of your bottom line if you get into this kind of restoration. What people don't realize is that battery stains, hcl acid stains, and orange acid burn can travel up to 2" deep into concrete. This used to be nearly impossible to remove in most cases.
There are many other ways to make money with the product... removing rust on just about everything. Once you have a product that gives you consistent and excellent results you will start noticing orange all over the place.

Yes everyone who has a three car garage and lives in a golf community usually has a golf cart and a big nasty stain in their garage.

And this is a GREAT upsell, as no one around here has been able to get the
stains out of the concrete. I have been using Ox Acid and One Restore,
but the F9 is best hands down.

The BARC from Front9 works on all kinds of rust stains, I have even used it on shingles w rust stains from AC overflow pipes. What is also nice is it wont harm the grass or foliage.

Okay, so how is it applied? With a pump up sprayer, down streaming?? How much area does one gallon cover? Do you need to rinse it off after application, or leave it alone and let the rain wash it off?
Thanks Craig

Mark it depends on what you are applying it to. For everything other than concrete you can dilute the product down if you want it to go further. Some guys dilute it down 2 or 3:1 with water for buildings, glass, stucco, vinyl, concrete coatings and other non-porous surfaces.
We apply it with a professional air-powered yamada pump. Other guys apply with an electric pump that has no metal parts inside. Or, you can use a pump sprayer.
One gallon when applied straight, undilute to concrete will cover 500-800' once or 250-400' twice. Orange battery stains and fertilizer stains require a straight application.
For sealed concrete and concrete coatings we have gotten up to 1,800' per gallon using it straight... but you can expect atleast 1,000'.
You should always rinse after application, but in many cases no residue will be left and you can just rinse the substrate for your own peace of mind. We are working on our learning center the next couple of weeks. We want to put up all the different scenerios together, how to apply it and also offer a small book you can carry in your trucks.

Chris, we may have "bulk" available in the 5's on our next blending of material. The bulk we have available currently is 55 gallon and 250 gallon totes.
Guys,
This is GREAT stuff. Works better than anything else I have used.
It is Very Pricey but it works. Price your jobs accordingly.
