Product Information

Full details

Nilco Angel Foam Patio & Path Cleaner is designed for homeowners seeking an effective, ready-to-use solution for removing dirt, algae, and bacteria from hard surfaces like patios, paths, stone, and driveways. Its key benefit is a fast-acting, long-lasting formula that kills algae within days and prevents regrowth for up to nine months, offering a low-maintenance clean. A potential caveat is that it is a ready-to-use formula, meaning the entire 12L quantity must be used in one application, which may be excessive for very small areas.

FAQs

How quickly does Nilco Angel Foam kill algae?

The Nilco Angel Foam Patio & Path Cleaner typically kills algae within 2 to 4 days of application.

How long does the anti-regrowth protection last?

The active formula remains active and controls regrowth for up to 9 months after application.

Can I use this on wooden decking?

This product is specifically designed for hard surfaces like stone, patios, paths, and driveways. It is not recommended for use on wooden decking.

Do I need to rinse the product off after application?

No, Nilco Angel Foam is a 'spray and leave' product. Rinsing is not required and may reduce its effectiveness.

Is it safe for plants and pets?

While the formula is acid and bleach-free, it is best to avoid direct spray onto plants. Keep pets and children away from the treated area until it is dry. Store safely out of reach of children and pets.

What if it rains shortly after application?

For best results, avoid application if rain is expected within 12-24 hours. Heavy rain shortly after application may reduce the product's effectiveness, and a repeat application might be necessary.

Can I use this on walls or fences?

Nilco Angel Foam is intended for horizontal hard surfaces like patios and driveways. Its use on vertical surfaces like walls or fences is not specified and may not be effective or appropriate.

Troubleshooting

Product not dispensing foam

Check that the garden hose is securely connected to the fitting on the product container. Ensure the water supply is turned on and has adequate pressure. Verify that the nozzle is not blocked.

Algae not killed after 4 days

Ensure the product was applied evenly and covered the affected areas thoroughly. Reapply if coverage was poor or if the area was washed away by heavy rain shortly after application. For very stubborn algae, a second application may be beneficial.

Stains remain on surface

Nilco Angel Foam is designed for algae and general dirt. Heavily ingrained stains may require pre-treatment or a second application. Ensure the product was left on the surface to work as directed.

Product used too quickly on small area

As this is a ready-to-use product designed for larger areas, consider if the 12L quantity is appropriate. For very small patches, manual application with a watering can might be considered, though less efficient. Ensure even distribution to maximize coverage.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Quickly eliminates algae and dirt.
  • Provides long-term prevention against regrowth.
  • Suitable for a variety of common outdoor hard surfaces.
  • Easy application via hose connection saves time and effort.
  • The foam action ensures thorough coverage.
  • Formulated without harsh acids or bleach, making it non-staining.

Cons

  • Ready-to-use format means the full 12L must be applied at once, potentially wasteful for small areas.
  • Effectiveness on extremely stubborn stains may require repeat applications.
  • Requires a garden hose and water source for application.
  • Dependent on weather conditions for optimal application and drying.
  • While it prevents regrowth, manual cleaning may still be needed for light debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Nilco Angel Foam Patio & Path Cleaner is a ready-to-use product. To apply, connect the product container directly to your garden hose using the integrated fitting. Ensure a secure connection to prevent leaks. Once connected, turn on the water supply and the product will mix with the water and dispense as a foam. Spray evenly over the affected hard surfaces, such as patios, paths, stone, or driveways.

Compatibility: This cleaner is suitable for a wide range of hard surfaces including concrete, paving slabs, stone, brickwork, and tarmac driveways. It is safe for use around established plants, but avoid direct spray onto delicate foliage. Always test on an inconspicuous area first if unsure.

Care: After application, the product is designed to be left on the surface to work. There is no need for rinsing. For best results, apply when rain is not expected for at least 12-24 hours. Store the product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and frost, and out of reach of children and pets. Ensure the cap is securely closed after use.
