Mapei UltraCare Kerapoxy Cleaner is a ready-to-use professional cleaner formulated to remove epoxy grout residues from suitable tiled surfaces. It helps tackle the film and marks that can remain after epoxy grouting, whether you are cleaning during installation or removing light remaining traces after the work is finished.
Epoxy grout delivers a durable, easy-clean joint, but its residue can be much harder to remove than ordinary cement grout haze. UltraCare Kerapoxy Cleaner is designed specifically for that task on compatible porcelain, ceramic and glass mosaic surfaces. It can be used on suitable internal and external walls and floors, giving installers a dedicated clean-up product rather than relying on an everyday household cleaner.
When to use it
- During epoxy grouting: Help remove suitable fresh epoxy residue as part of the prescribed cleaning process.
- After installation: Treat light remaining epoxy grout haze or traces on compatible tiled surfaces.
- Bathroom, kitchen and pool tiling: Clean suitable porcelain, ceramic and glass mosaic finishes after an epoxy grout installation, subject to the surface and system requirements.
Kerapoxy Cleaner or a stronger epoxy remover?
Choose UltraCare Kerapoxy Cleaner for routine epoxy grout residue removal and light post-installation marks. If epoxy has hardened into thick or stubborn deposits, Mapei's UltraCare Epoxy Off Gel is the more targeted product to investigate. Don't assume a routine clean-up spray will dissolve substantial cured epoxy build-up.
How to get the best result
Use as supplied and follow the product's specified contact time, agitation and rinsing procedure. Test on a small inconspicuous area first, particularly with porous, polished, coated or unfamiliar finishes. Cleaning during installation remains the best approach: remove residue progressively rather than allowing it to set on the tile face. For epoxy grouting, pair the clean-up plan with Kerapoxy Easy Design where suitable.
