Adhesives can be split into 2 main categories: THINSET and ORGANIC MASTICS. THINSET adhesives come in powder form and must be mixed with either water, liquid latex or an acrylic additive depending on the type. Thinsets are considered harder to work with because they must be mixed to the right consistency before using.

The "magic" happens when Ceilcare, our water based, non toxic, biodegradable, environmentally safe, USDA accepted product is applied in a low volume, low pressure sprayer . Through an oxidation process the dirt dissipates into a harmless vapor. We then clean all non-pourous items such at t-bars, grids, lights, speaker covers, sprinkers and exit signs.
