Soft washed the siding on this wood barn today. The temp. was 40 degrees, and a light rain. Very heavy black staining on the wood.

I thought that winter came to Grand Rapids.  Great job.  Do you think that the outcome would have been different(better) if it was 70?

I believe it would have worked a little better faster, and cleaned a little bit more. I will get a better look at it once it dries up outside, and the wood dries some.

 Art,

If you're in a pinch you can get it at your local True Value hardware store.

Dramatic before and after photos. Obviously your the leader in exterior soft wash cleaning in Grand Rapids and the surrounding areas.

I buy it from Univar, same place I get my SH. Buy it by the 50Lb bag. It is very in-expensive that way.

Gary,

This is good to know. I'm planning on marketing roof rust stain removal in 2013 and I'll need to buy in bulk.

 Art,

Everything is sitting in the shop untouched since the close of 2012. At the end of Feb. I'll be working on it.
