Thank You Thank You Thank You!!! No applause Please! LOL
Why Ask WHY!???
Don't Add water to the beer! But do drink the beer water??? There is a lesson here... SHC is all you need and Maybe a surfactant...
James EHS
Actually SHC/Water is ALL you "need" But the addition of a detergent or TSP makes a better looking roof cleaning. TSP is a POWERFUL cleaner that cleans much better then most any surfactant. It is also Alkaline, and "boosts" the cleaneing power of SHC. It IS "hard to use" compared to just dumping dish soap in there.
Apple Sauce has Borax in it with the TSP. It lasts longer between cleanings.
NP 9 surfactant thickens the mix up, but weakens it.

UHHH? Where are you from. What City and State.. ??? It is not on your profile... Maybe I missed it! About your plants. It is to late for the last batch.. Next time take the extra 30min...45min and pre water then cover your bushes and plants. It may seem like alott of extra work on the front end but on the back end you won't have the killing fields with your clients plants....
Trust me! Take the extra time to protect the plant life on the front end.....!!!
Been there! Done that. Learned that lesson 8 years ago...
SHC only has about two hours kill time.. After that it turns back into salt water...
If the client has no gutters then it may behove you to go ahead and do a quick rinse on the roof before you uncover the plant life...
Note: On a hot day do not use clear plastic or you will cook your plants... Brown tarps from Home Depot usually work out pretty good. Do not forget to pre water...
thank guy's for all the help i had a friend look at the plants he said they should be ok in a couple of week with good watering im going to change my tipe so i can control the runoff beter i was soaking it with the yamada had a 40 orfis tip now i realise to mist the roof not soak it i used 150 gallons of mix on the first roof probably only needed 50 or so i wont be doing that again
