Make concrete POP with F9 Groundskeeper – a professional-grade maintenance cleaner engineered for contractors who want cleaner, brighter concrete with less time spent on repeat cleaning jobs.
F9 Groundskeeper is a high-performance, concentrated concrete maintenance cleaner designed for commercial and industrial pressure washing applications. Unlike traditional high-pH cleaners and degreasers, Groundskeeper uses a buffered low-pH formula to deep clean and brighten concrete while helping properly maintained surfaces stay cleaner longer and become easier to clean on future service visits.
Ideal for professional pressure washing contractors, commercial property maintenance companies, parking garages, sidewalks, shopping centers, warehouses and other high-traffic hard surfaces, F9 Groundskeeper attacks embedded soils, grime, tire marks and contaminants that ordinary surface cleaning can leave behind.
Why Professional Contractors Use F9 Groundskeeper
F9 Groundskeeper isn't intended to replace your initial degreasing process. Instead, it takes over where conventional degreasers and hot-water pressure washing leave off.
When oil and hydrocarbon contamination is present, first remove the topical contamination with an appropriate degreaser such as F9 Double Eagle. Once the concrete pores are exposed, F9 Groundskeeper can be applied to further clean and brighten the surface.
The result is concrete that doesn't just look washed—it looks deep cleaned and noticeably brighter.
With an ongoing maintenance program, contractors may also reduce the amount of chemical and labor required during future cleanings, helping improve productivity on recurring commercial accounts.

Recommended Surfaces
F9 Groundskeeper can be used on many commercial hard surfaces, including:
Concrete • Brick • Pavers • Masonry • Grout • Most Tile • Stone
Always perform a compatibility test before treating the entire surface.
Initial Cleaning Dilution
8:1 to 10:1 – Water to F9 Groundskeeper
Pre-wet the surface with water. Apply the properly diluted solution and allow it to dwell before surface cleaning.
Use a stronger recommended dilution on heavily soiled areas and a weaker dilution on lighter contamination.
Always surface clean after application.
Maintenance Cleaning Dilution
10:1 to 20:1 – Water to F9 Groundskeeper
For previously treated or regularly maintained surfaces, dilute according to the level of contamination.
Pre-wet the surface, apply the solution, allow appropriate dwell time and surface clean.
Direct Application Instructions
F9 Groundskeeper can be applied using a:
- Pump sprayer
- Electric diaphragm pump
- Air diaphragm pump
- Other compatible professional chemical application equipment
Dilute according to the recommended ratio.
Always add F9 Groundskeeper to water—never add water into concentrated product.
Allow approximately 2–10 minutes of dwell time before surface cleaning. Agitation or brushing may help on stubborn contamination.
Do not allow the chemical to dry on the surface.
Downstreaming F9 Groundskeeper
F9 Groundskeeper can also be applied through a compatible downstream chemical injector.
When downstreaming, calculate your injector draw rate carefully so the final solution reaching the surface falls within the recommended 10:1 to 20:1 dilution range.
Professional Concrete Maintenance Applications
F9 Groundskeeper is an excellent addition to a professional cleaning program for:
- Parking garages
- Commercial sidewalks
- Shopping centers
- Storefronts
- Restaurants
- Gas stations
- Warehouses
- Loading areas
- Municipal properties
- Commercial buildings
- Industrial facilities
- Recurring pressure washing contracts
- Concrete and paver maintenance programs
For contractors servicing the same properties repeatedly, F9 Groundskeeper can be especially valuable because the maintenance-cleaning process is designed to make subsequent cleaning more efficient.
Important Pre-Cleaning Information
F9 Groundskeeper is a maintenance cleaner and surface brightener, not primarily a heavy oil degreaser.
If concrete has significant oil, grease or hydrocarbon contamination, pre-clean those areas first with F9 Double Eagle Degreaser or another appropriate professional degreaser.
Once topical contamination has been removed and the concrete pores are visible, apply F9 Groundskeeper at the appropriate dilution and surface clean.

Important Safety Information
FOR INDUSTRIAL / PROFESSIONAL USE ONLY. NOT FOR RESIDENTIAL CONSUMER USE.
Never apply F9 Groundskeeper undiluted to porous surfaces. Strong concentrations may etch or otherwise affect certain materials.
Always test an inconspicuous area first to confirm surface compatibility before proceeding with the full application.
Follow the manufacturer's current product label, Safety Data Sheet (SDS), PPE requirements and application instructions.
