FAQs
What is the best way to apply Nilco Angel Power?
The product is designed for use with a foam gun sprayer attached to a pressure washer or water source. This allows for an even application of the foam that clings to the surface.
How long should I leave the foam on the decking?
Refer to the specific instructions on the product label or your foam gun sprayer's manual, as dwell times can vary. Generally, allow sufficient time for the foam to penetrate the dirt and grime.
Can this cleaner be used on composite decking?
Nilco Angel Power is primarily formulated for wooden decking and fencing. While it may be used on some composite materials, it's recommended to test in an inconspicuous area first, as formulations vary.
Does this product seal or protect the wood?
This product is a powerful cleaner designed to remove dirt and grime and help prevent premature degradation of the wood's color and finish. It does not act as a sealant or protective coating. For long-term protection, a separate decking sealant or stain should be applied after cleaning and drying.
What is the difference between the 8L bottle and the 1L bottle?
The 8L bottle is a larger size for general cleaning of extensive areas like large decks or fences, typically used with a foam gun. The 1L bottle is a smaller size, often intended for more targeted, anti-bacterial spot treatments.
Do I need a pressure washer to use this?
While often used with a pressure washer, the foam gun attachment may also be compatible with standard garden hose connections, depending on the specific foam gun model. Check your foam gun's specifications.
Troubleshooting
Foam is not being generated or is weak.
Check that the foam gun sprayer is correctly attached to the Nilco Angel Power bottle and the water source. Ensure the nozzle on the sprayer is clean and unobstructed. Some pressure washers may require specific settings for foam generation.
Dirt and grime are not fully removed after rinsing.
Allow the foam to dwell for the recommended time. For heavily soiled areas, a second application might be necessary, or gentle scrubbing with a stiff brush before rinsing can aid removal.
The wood appears to have faded after cleaning.
This cleaner is designed to remove surface discoloration and embedded grime. If the wood's original color was significantly degraded, the underlying wood tone will be revealed. For protection against future fading, consider applying a suitable decking sealant or stain after the wood has dried completely.
Product left white marks on the surface.
Ensure the product was thoroughly rinsed off. Dried residue can sometimes appear as white marks. A second rinse with clean water should resolve this.
