FAQs

Can this cleaner be used on decking?

This cleaner is specifically formulated for hard surfaces like patios, driveways, and brickwork. It is not recommended for use on wooden decking, as it may cause damage or discoloration.

How often should I use this patio cleaner?

The frequency of use depends on the level of dirt and staining. For general maintenance, a yearly clean might suffice. For heavily used or heavily stained areas, more frequent application may be beneficial.

Is it safe to use near plants or pets?

While the product is designed for outdoor use, it is a chemical cleaner. It is advisable to protect nearby plants by covering them or rinsing them thoroughly after cleaning. Keep pets away from the treated area until it has been thoroughly rinsed and dried.

Can I use a pressure washer with this cleaner?

Yes, a pressure washer can be used for rinsing. However, avoid using a high-pressure setting directly on the cleaning solution or on delicate surfaces, as this could cause damage. Use it primarily for thorough rinsing after scrubbing.

What is the shelf life of the product?

When stored correctly in its original, sealed container in a cool, dry place, the product typically maintains its efficacy for at least two years.

Does this cleaner remove oil stains?

Yes, the cleaner is designed to deeply clean and remove various stains, including common driveway stains like oil, grease, and tire marks.

Troubleshooting

Cleaner is not removing stains effectively.

Ensure the product is diluted correctly. For tougher stains, try a stronger dilution or allow a longer dwell time before scrubbing. Reapply if necessary.

Surface appears streaky after rinsing.

Rinse the surface more thoroughly with clean water. Ensure no cleaning solution residue remains, as this can cause streaking.

Product does not seem to foam or spread evenly.

Check the dilution ratio. Ensure you are mixing with clean water. Some surfaces may absorb the liquid quickly, requiring prompt agitation.

Surface color appears faded after cleaning.

This can occur if the cleaner was too strong or left on too long, especially on colored paving. Always test in a small area first. If color loss is significant, consult the manufacturer's guidelines or consider professional advice.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Dilution: Always dilute the cleaner according to the instructions on the product label. A common starting point is a 1:5 ratio (one part cleaner to five parts water), but this may need adjustment based on stain severity.
  2. Application: Apply the diluted solution to the dry surface using a watering can, sprayer, or a scrubbing brush.
  3. Dwell Time: Allow the cleaner to sit on the surface for 5-10 minutes to penetrate the grime. Do not allow it to dry on the surface.
  4. Agitation: Scrub the area with a stiff brush or broom to dislodge stubborn dirt.
  5. Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly with clean water using a hose or pressure washer on a low setting.

Compatibility:

  • Suitable for most common patio and driveway materials including concrete, stone, brick, and block paving.
  • Always test on an inconspicuous area first, especially on delicate or colored surfaces, to check for any adverse reactions.

Care:

  • Store the product in its original container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and frost.
  • Keep the container tightly closed when not in use.
  • Wear appropriate protective clothing, gloves, and eye protection during use. Ensure good ventilation.
