Here's a demo I did for a customer on a very conspicuous area of their metal roof, right over their front porch. They had used pressure washers (for $500) in the past to blast away at their roof and said they couldn't justify the $2400 to SoftWash. I used a 3% CH solution, sprayed, agitated, rinsed, then a...

Softwashers,   I just wanted to post a small video of my company cleaning one of the local city hall roofs with softwashing. Also wanted to say I recently switched to bulk SH from Univar (drums) and it is vastly more potent than my local merchant who claimed their product was 12.8% SH. It was also less tha...

Having seen the results Brandon Vaughn had on his metal roof restoration, we had full confidence when we met with the owner that we could handle this project. To be on the safe side, we ran a test first. We used F13 (Gutter Grenade) to cut through the oxidation, and like Brandon pointed out, a lot of brush...

Has anyone seen stains like this before? 4% SH or F9 didn't even touch it. To be honest I'm not really sure what kind of metal or finish it was originally - I'm thinking copper perhaps?

I'm currently in the middle of the busiest week we've had at Shine so for the first time I filled the 100 gal bulk tank and went to work. I mixed four 50 gal batches of 4% solution today and with every batch it started out cleaning great but when I got to about 5-8 gallons left in the mix tank my solution wasn't...

This was a project I started tackling yesterday. After starting - I found that the roof has pretty severe oxidization. I had only contracted with the customer to do a regular spray treatment for $900 to remove the black algae and lichen growing on the surface. It was definitely a learning experience f...

Came across this job today. Its a 12 year old metal roof, green in color. The house has an addition on the left hand side that shows the color of the roof and newer metal that is still the original color. The light, puke green color is oxidation. There is still plenty of good color left under the this, just n...

No New Posts Tile or Metal?

Cleaned this unique roof today. On initial glance, it looks like a old school ceramic/asbestos tile roof, but its actually individual metal tiles.  Cleaned up at 1% with two to three coats.  We also cleaned the big "Marshmallow" pool dome in the photos too, inside and out. Found a new type...
