Soda and sugar stains can cause many problems on concrete. Not only does it leave behind an unpleasant, sticky stain, but it can also continue to attract dirt and grime for quite a while. The cleanliness of your store matters and if customers notice soda stains around the outside of your business, they’ll likely assume the inside is just as dirty. This can leave a negative impression on customers, and they may not want to come back. To get rid of soda stains and make a good impression on customers, try OTIS Multi-Surface Cleaner.
