Acid Residue From Previous Etching Reacts With Epoxy Primer — Neutralise First

An Auburn automotive workshop had previously had a tenant who used muriatic acid (hydrochloric acid) for descaling engine components. Some of the acid had reached the concrete floor and hadn't been fully neutralised before the tenancy changed. The concrete surface looked normal. We applied alkaline epoxy primer. The cured primer showed visible pale streaking in the areas where the acid residue had been — the acid had reacted with the alkaline primer chemistry during curing, leaving contamination trails.

Acid residue on concrete is invisible to a visual assessment. It doesn't leave obvious staining in most cases. The pH test is the correct diagnostic: a pH strip or litmus paper dampened and pressed to the concrete surface. Normal concrete is alkaline (pH 10-12). Acid-treated or acid-contaminated concrete will show lower pH — below 7 in severe contamination. Before any epoxy primer application, the surface should be neutralised with a dilute alkaline wash (sodium bicarbonate solution), rinsed thoroughly, and retested to confirm pH has returned to alkaline.

We stripped the affected sections and neutralised before repriming. The additional pH testing and neutralisation is now standard on any Auburn automotive, industrial, or commercial facility floor where chemical processing or acid use is indicated in the facility's history. It's a ten-minute test that prevents a full rework.

Auburn is Cumberland City's commercial hub — automotive businesses, light industrial, and the diverse retail and service economy of Parramatta Road. Transport NSW approved. pH testing before primer is now a specific pre-application step on every Auburn automotive facility floor.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Auburn Cumberland City automotive workshops and commercial facilities are part of our western Sydney schedule. pH testing on any automotive or industrial floor with acid use history — acid residue neutralised before primer application. We've completed 5,000+ projects nationally since 2009 and carry $20M public liability insurance. Every Auburn quote includes a site assessment, surface condition report, and fixed pricing. No estimates that change at invoicing. For SafeWork NSW improvement notices we can typically assess within 24 hours and deploy within 48-72 hours. Completion comes with photo documentation, a compliance statement, and material specifications. Transport NSW approved for any road or carpark marking that requires local council or state road authority sign-off.

Standard two-pack epoxy primers are formulated for alkaline or neutral concrete surfaces. Acid residue on the concrete creates a localised low-pH zone. The alkaline primer chemistry reacts with the acid during curing — the reaction disrupts the crosslinking process and produces visible pale streaking or contamination trails in the cured film. The film is weakened and adhesion in affected zones is compromised.

pH indicator strips or litmus paper dampened with distilled water, pressed to the concrete surface at multiple points — particularly in areas with any history of acid use. Normal concrete reads pH 10-12. Acid-contaminated surfaces read lower. Below pH 9, we neutralise with dilute sodium bicarbonate solution, rinse thoroughly, and retest before priming. Takes about 20 minutes to test and treat a standard workshop floor.

Yes please. Any known history of acid use on the floor — descaling, acid wash cleaning, battery acid spills, chemical processing — should be disclosed at the assessment stage. It's not a problem if disclosed; it becomes a problem if it's discovered after primer is applied.
