Exposed metal valleys

Any advice or warnings when using SH 4% on a roof with exposed metal valleys.  I am wondering about etching the paint/metal.  They are painted black.

We would spray the roof, rinse the whole thing and then probably Bleach wash & rinse the valley's with the painted metal. Depending on how warm the temps are, I might section off the roof and do the process in pieces, so the paint does not start to come off.

Also, what color are the shingles & how infested is the roof?? Reason I ask, is that we clean most roofs with a 2.5% or 3% solution. Whihte three tabs and really nasty, mossy roofs is all we use a 4% for.

Include it in the price and explain to customer what you are Doing. Most likely your competition will not be.
