Why D/2?

D/2 Biological Solution is effective for removing harmful biological and air pollutant staining from many building materials including masonry, marble, granite, limestone, brownstone, travertine, terra cotta, concrete, stucco, wood, canvas and vinyl & aluminum siding.

  • D/2 was developed by conservators who know the damage that can be done by cleaners containing acid or salts. Our product has been specially formulated without these harmful agents. D/2 is a nearly pH-neutral quaternary ammonium solution with surfactants that help carry surface contaminants away. No other solution is more trusted by architectural and monument conservators.

  • D/2 has been successfully used to remove staining from a variety of surfaces including natural stones such as marble, granite, limestone, sandstone, slate; masonry surfaces such as brick and cast stone; concrete; wood; aluminum and vinyl siding; and canvas.

  • D/2 has been successfully used to clean millions of buildings and monuments. From the White House to Arlington National Cemetery, D/2 is trusted to work and keep on working when results matter.

Long Shelf Life

  • D/2 Biological Solution is non-mutagenic, and contains no carcinogenic compounds as defined by NTP, IARC, or OSHA. It is considered essentially non-toxic by swallowing, as it has an oral LD50 of 2.0 g/kg of body weight. No special ventilation is required during use.

  • D/2 Biological Solution is available in 1 quart, 1 gallon and 5 gallon containers, and 55 gallon drums.

    The area that can be treated with one gallon of D/2 will vary considerably as a function of the nature and extent of biological deposits, as well as the physical characteristics of the surface. Typical coverage to remove medium deposits will vary from 250 to 350 square feet per gallon.

  • Fast acting: 10 to 15 minutes contact time for great results.
