It safely prepares up to 250 square feet per pack without harmful acids or fumes, ensuring effective adhesion while protecting surrounding plants and grass. ## Description Product Description Rust-Oleum Concrete Preparation Etch is the ideal solution for treating interior and exterior concrete prior to coating or sealing. When mixed with water, citric-acid based etching powder opens up small pores on concrete, allowing paint to better grip and adhere for a longer lasting finish. From the Manufacturer Rust-Oleum EPOXYShield Concrete Etch prepares concrete surfaces for painting and staining. When mixed with water, Concrete Etch creates a surface profile that allows for maximum penetration and adhesion. Review: A must, and does a great job - I bought two, since I have a two-car garage. I power-washed my garage floor twice. One side had a few paint splatters on the floor, nothing big, but the other had a few oil stains. After heavy cleaning, I applied the concrete etch. I used a metal watering can that holds two gallons of water and mixed it in with the concrete etch. I poured some on the floor, let it sit for about a minute or two and then began scrubbing. I missed scrubbing a few spots and you can tell, once it dried. Nothing bad, though. I first wet the surface, lightly, then applied the etch. Let it sit for a minute or two, scrubbed, and then moved on to the next section. When done, I rinsed the whole floor. I had a squeegee to wash/clean a car's windshield, and put it on a pole. I used it to pull out all of the water from the garage floor (not all, but 'most'). I then gave it another rinse, to ensure I didn't leave any etch on the floor. After it dried, my garage floor went from a dark gray to almost white, which is what you want! Unfortunately, some of the etch pooled at the end of my driveway and dried, so I have a white spot at the end of my driveway (which is asphalt). Not a biggie, I'm sure the rain will eventually wash it clean. Review: Epoxy did not peel up after using this concrete etch - I used EpoxyShield Concrete Etch prior to applying a coating of Rustoleum Professional Floor Coating Kit, Silver Gray. After use, the concrete no longer had a shiny surface, and it looked very clean. The real test was two months after I applied the epoxy - it was adhering tightly, and did not peel off even under the car tires. Preparation is the key to good epoxy adhesion. This product was important in preparing properly. I liked that it was not toxic or dangerous, but still prepares the concrete well. ## Features - Ideal for preparing concrete floorings for painting, sealing and coating - Citric-acid formula opens up tiny pores on concrete's surface, allowing for better paint adhesion - Makes 2 gallons of etching solution per 1 lb package - Environmentally friendly solution will not harm plants or grass - Apply with a plastic watering can or push broom ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0012YIZ28 | | Best Sellers Rank | #58,647 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #468 in Paint & Primer | | Brand | Rust-Oleum | | Brand Name | Rust-Oleum | | Color | White | | Color Code | No color | | Coverage | see package | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 260 Reviews | | Finish Type | Gloss | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00020066159719 | | Included Components | Concrete Etch | | Item Form | Powder | | Item Type Name | Concrete Preparation Etch | | Item Volume | 2 Gallons | | Item Weight | 16 ounces | | Manufacturer | Rust-Oleum | | Model Name | Rust-Oleum 238475 Concrete Etch, 1 Pack , White | | Model Number | 238475 | | Paint Type | Acrylic | | Part Number | 238475 | | Size | 16 Ounce (Pack of 1) | | Special Feature | Concentrated | | Special Features | Concentrated | | Specific Uses For Product | Heater | | Surface Recommendation | Concrete | | UPC | 020066159719 | | Unit Count | 16.0 Ounce | | Warranty Description | Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Rust-Oleum - **Item Form:** Powder - **Scent:** Unscented - **Specific Uses For Product:** Heater - **Material Feature:** Natural ## Images ![Rust-Oleum 238475 Concrete Preparation Etch, 1 lb - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51EjArnx7aL.jpg) ![Rust-Oleum 238475 Concrete Preparation Etch, 1 lb - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71sfybSo3FL.jpg) ![Rust-Oleum 238475 Concrete Preparation Etch, 1 lb - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71V4b4OQs3L.jpg) ![Rust-Oleum 238475 Concrete Preparation Etch, 1 lb - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71y0NyBrEvL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must, and does a great job *by R***Y on September 4, 2012* I bought two, since I have a two-car garage. I power-washed my garage floor twice. One side had a few paint splatters on the floor, nothing big, but the other had a few oil stains. After heavy cleaning, I applied the concrete etch.

After use, the concrete no longer had a shiny surface, and it looked very clean. The real test was two months after I applied the epoxy - it was adhering tightly, and did not peel off even under the car tires. Preparation is the key to good epoxy adhesion. This product was important in preparing properly. I liked that it was not toxic or dangerous, but still prepares the concrete well. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ You can save a lot of time and skip both degreasing and etching by renting a concrete floor buffer *by A***. on June 12, 2017* It works, in some spots of the concrete I can clearly see the pores opened from this product. Out of hesitation I rented a concrete floor grinder from the orange home improvement store. The 2 hours I spent with the concrete floor grinder was a better use of my time than the 8+ hours I spent decreasing the surface plus the 2 hours I spent using this product. The concrete floor buffer I rented weighted about 180 lbs and was a beast to unload and load. It was easy to use otherwise, completely worth it in the end for my situation. This product has its place, but if any amount of degreasing is necessary this route may not be worth the time. If you have a fairly clean slab to etch, then this is the product for you. ## Frequently Bought Together - Rust-Oleum 238475 Concrete Etch, 1 Pack , White - Rust-Oleum 301243 Cleaner and Degreaser, 1 Gallon - Rust-Oleum 279847 Anti-Skid Additive, 3.4 oz --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/7814790-rust-oleum-238475-concrete-preparation-etch-1-lb](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/7814790-rust-oleum-238475-concrete-preparation-etch-1-lb) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-05-20*
