Good idea, is that just running off your yanmar in the van?

Low pressure nozzles Richy with the hypo feeding through ventura. We've had this paving for over 3 years regular cleans monthly and it stripes with a whirl-a-way on just water. Once sprayed we fly through with whirl-a-way twice as fast and result in a uniformed clean in the meantime rinsing and spotting gum.

What is hypo? do you mean sodium hypochlorite i.e. bleach.

So do you just spray this on, then jet off off straight after? How long does it need to be on the surface for to have a good effect? I assume this kills the black lichen spots?

Through the ventura is ok for this kind of soiling or flagstones and block paving but when it comes to decking and black spots we do 10 litres in a bucket to 10 litres water and apply with a soft car brush.

10 minutes or so, it's works pretty much within minutes. Decking the same working in the grooves.
£10 up here for 25 litres. £24 down south for 20 litres.
Or buy an IBC for about £300

I'll need some more for a decking clean that we're doing Saturday morning so I'll be getting some Friday. I could get you some and you pick it up Saturday. Job is in Leigh. Then in the afternoon I may be going to Stalybridge as that's where FC United will be playing their home game due to fixture draw clash with Bury and your boys.
