Product Information
Full details
The Nilco Angel Foam Patio & Path Cleaner is designed for homeowners seeking an effective, bleach-free solution to eliminate dirt, grime, and algae from external hard surfaces like patios, driveways, and paths. Its key benefit is a fast-acting foaming action that tackles embedded dirt and rapidly removes algae within days, offering protection against re-growth for up to 9 months. A minor caveat is the need to keep pets and people away from treated areas for 48 hours until dry, and to protect water storage tanks.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
How often should I use Nilco Angel Foam?
The product's anti-algae action lasts up to 9 months, so reapplication is typically needed only when regrowth is observed or as part of seasonal maintenance.
Can I use this product on wooden decking?
Nilco Angel Foam is specifically designed for patio slabs, stone, and driveways. It is not recommended for use on wooden surfaces.
Do I need to rinse the product off after application?
No, the product is designed to be left on the surface to work and provide lasting protection. Do NOT rinse off.
What is the coverage rate of Nilco Angel Foam?
The application rate is 1 litre of product per 3 square metres of surface.
Is this product safe for plants?
Unprotected persons and animals should be kept away from treated areas for 48 hours. While not directly tested for plant safety, it is best to avoid overspray onto garden beds and cover sensitive plants.
How long does it take to see results?
Algae is typically removed within days. Dirt and grime will be penetrated by the foam, and natural weathering will help lift it over time, especially if agitated.
Can I use Angel Foam if rain is forecast?
No, it's crucial that the surface remains dry for at least 6 hours after application to allow the product to work effectively and prevent it from being washed away prematurely.
Troubleshooting
Product not spraying effectively
Ensure the spray nozzle is securely attached and turned to the 'ON' position. Check for any blockages in the nozzle or tube.
Algae or grime not fully removed after several days
For stubborn areas, reapply the product and gently agitate the surface with a hard-bristled brush. Ensure the surface remained dry for the recommended period.
White residue appears on surfaces
This is uncommon as the formula is non-staining. Ensure no other cleaning products were mixed. If persistent, a light rinse with water might help after the 48-hour waiting period, though rinsing is not recommended by default.
