Title: Hypo
Post by: Steve Grocott on August 01, 2021, 08:25:04 pm: Hey guys,
What’s the procedure for using hypo: I don’t normally use it, but doing my daughters grey flags soon and I know it’s the only way to get the black spot off effectively. I’ve bought some 17% stuff. Any advice gratefully received.

Post by: Smudger on August 02, 2021, 08:55:48 am: My procedure is to pressure wash first

then apply hypo at 50% - leave to dwell for 15 mins - sometimes its useful to agitate with a stiff broom

check and re-apply ( sometimes neat ) to any last remaining stubborn spots - leave again

rinse down ( your personal choice)

Where did you find 17% hypo? it normally only goes upto 14%

Is that including delivery ( or do you pick it up?) that’s a good price.

although I buy 10% from a farm shop half a mile from my home for £14….. it cost more but is super convenient
