-

still trying it out before i reccommend it to anyone else to use.

will last a long time,
it comes in 5lt and you only need 100ml per 5lts of water!
so this could make upto 250lts of cleaning fluid!

How is your Facelift pole holding up? Tempted to try one next time around.

When needed, I use a stuff from my local cleaning supplies shop that does the same.
It goes under the unlikely name of 'lichen and mold remover'.

Strange name to call it! Lol

Anybody ever used the hypo the power washing guys swear by?

I havn't. No need to. I use a stuff called 'lichen and mold remover'. Seems to do the job fine with just a spray and wfp.

You could get them results with tap water
this is what i keep on telling people, but no one believes me!!!!!
-
You could get them results with tap water
You could, but it will be a lot of hard work and a lot of time! Lichen doesn't come off that easily with just tap water!
-

Even small amounts of Lichen takes time. Lots would be a nightmare.

yer thats true, in total that job was 1 1/2 hours work, from turning up, seting up, doing job and packing up.

So your not going to tell anyone what it is, your going to try and get it for the right price and sell it on yourself, have I got it right?

yes and no, i will tell what it is, then i will be stocking it to sell. I already get a small discount to what anyone else can buy it for in the shops already, but if i can get a better price then I will be selling it.
as this hasnt been used for this kind of work im not putting my name to it untill i know its fine. last think i want is to tell someone to use it, it damages some UPVC on a customers house thne that person has to pay out for it to be replaced, then it looks bad on me casue i told them to use it!

Very best thing for lichen removal on a polycarbonate roof is to wet it with water and then use a 12 inch squeegee with the rubber removed would have cleared that roof in under 10 minutes then rinse off
No chems needed for that

U must be thinking of something else, not of that shifted with our hot water and brushes! Lichen don't come off that easily.
-
Plus there is more chance of you doing damage to the plastic roof scraping it like that,
-
Sorry to disagree RC but yes it's comes straight off and no it does not damage the poly carb as a squeegee blade holder has no sharp edges
Maybe it's safer than using " unknown chemicals " onto the plastic without testing first?

ive never had any come off with just water without spending a long time and hard work getting them off. plus you dont kill the spors or the roots off with just water either so not giving the customer as good as a job.
the scraper might not have any sharp edges but any grit on the roof that you are scraping at can damage the roof.
plus this isnt a unknown chemical at all, its from a leading cleaning chemical maker, that started in 1968 and there uk factory cover 16 achres, plus several over the world.
this chemicals main use is floors, walls, kitchens and food plant machinery.

Bleach ;D

lol now that would do damage to the plastic and rubber! lol

So your agenda is to promote a chemical which by your posts indicate may effect the plastic because you won't name it ?
Or more cynically wish to sell it on at a profit ? Which isn't a problem either
Lichen is always hard to remove with or without chemicals by only using a brush.
I found that a nice piece of planed wood much better that all that scrubbing used with running water then I had a car port 40 foot by 15 foot ( totally covered in lichen) so I converted the end of my water fed pole to take a squeegee and hey pesto job. Done in under 30 mins
As for quality of service once the roof is clean and the lichen is removed I have done what the customer has paid for a clean roof won't have any spores on it - they usually come from nearby trees or off lichen still growing on roof tiles
Just offering my experiences on the subject

agenda is to promote the chemical, i never reccomend anything untill i have tried it myself and made sure myself that it dont cause damage. which it should do as they use it on food plant machinery that has metal, plastics and rubber maybe glass depending on the machine i guess.
any salesman can tell you what you want to hear, but me like i like try it first and see for myself.
yes i am hoping to supply it to. hence why i really want to give it a good testing.
with this the lichen was easy to remove, sprayed it on, waited and could rub off all of it with finger without much pressure, witch also kills any roots that are left behind within any scraches, or rubber seals, screw etc.

the diffrence is that im not rebranding it or anything as technically it is illegal to do that!
this will be the same concentrated stuff that you can get from any other place that sells it on the net etc!

So in the spirit of the forum just pass on the good news and point out where people can buy it .

Fair comment, but are you really qualified to guarantee that it won't cause a problem on plastic or glass conservatory roofs? You can't just spray some on and clean it and say it "looks ok" half an hour later! These companies spend a lot of money testing these products under strict guidelines making sure there are no come backs. (I do know) If it's a mate saying "give it a go" then fair enough, you may take a chance. You actually want to sell it and give a recommendation as to its quality then you need to be qualified. Why don't you just do all your testing and then promote it on the forum as a qualified product and just sell it?

its uses are walls, floors, in kitchens on all surfaces and on food plant machinery. the place that will be supplying this to me has one more thats in the same range but stronger, that is used in the weetabix factory on all there machinery!
you dont need to be quilified to sell this at all.
this is the 3rd one i have tried in the range and the others didnt touch lichen at the dilution rates that is stated on the product. they cleaned everything else and brought the upvc up well. but with this one at the dilutions that is says work well and thats what im testing mainly.

I think you're mad trying to re-brand an existing product. But fair play to you for trying. If you genuinely think it's good then I'm willing to try it. Mad not to. Put me down for your first order.

I'm not re-branding it as that's illegal unless you through loads of stuff.
I'm not changing it in anyway or adding anything to it. It comes to me in a sealed 5lt container and that's how it will go out,
All I'm doing is buying it trade from them and selling it on as a retailer.

he is not Dani J (bosh)

selosol then ;)
That was one i did get told to try first by the supplier, but it didn't do as good job, but it did get rid of the normal green algee and brought the upvc up well

I think what you are trying to is good and your intentions are good but I think it's a mistake to come on ciu (you could get away with it on other forums maybe) and go about it the way you are. You came up with the remote controller idea yourself and although similar to other controllers you put it together yourself and marketed it as such...your vids and marketing were good. When it comes to products already on the market such as cleaning solution the usual thing would be to share your find so it can benefit all on the forum. The bosh magica 1 go fiasco is still fresh in people's memories so anything other than sharing a find and your onto a hiding to nothing. It would at least have been better for you to have done all your 'testing' before mentioning it if you weren't going to just do it out of helpfulness. When you talk about a product that can significantly improve our cleaning and reduce the effort taken then people naturally want to know straight away...especially when it comes to conny roof cleaning! Your withholding the info does you no favours with ciu members especially as you want to make money out of your find as a stockist/seller. When you have done your testing and decide to stock and sell can you really sell it cheaper than a local supplier when you factor in the postage? Maybe, I would doubt it though...another reason why when it comes to products already on the market it is best to share, to recommend, rather than the way you have gone about it. You are a top bloke and very helpful to others, this can be seen on the forums you are on...watch out you don't end up as Bosh did though!

thanks for that.
cost wise at the minute i can only find a few places thats selling it online, one place is just over £20 with postage and the other is just over £16.30 with postage. got to find out the exact price i can get if for, but i should be able to match or slightly beat the lowest price, but people might be able to pick it up from either me or the might have a supplier in there town then it would only be around £10 if not a little less.
not heard the story behind bosh, so dont know what happend there!

not wasting anyones time or anything, just letting people know whats going on and whats coming.
hold on, just like gardniers and facelift did with there poles! lol think we had to wait a month or so to find out anything about them!
i find it funny that when its an individual person, people get the right arse, but when its a big company that does the same thing, and dont even give previews like i have done no-one says a things!!!!

Morning RC. Up til the last bit of this comment I thought you had defended your corner and kept your cool well. But really that comparison, really?
You may have found a product that may save us some effort/time but I would lock the thread untill your happy to recommend or retail it.
Don't lose your wragg or make daft comparisons as it make you look foolish

Difference with gardiners and facelift is they are developing a product
Things he buys off the shelf like connectors reels etc.. Are just put straight on the web site
If you have a product that does a great job - that's fab
If you want to sell it - that's fine
If you need to test it - do so but one look at the tech specs should be enough to tell you if its safe on polycarbonate
But stop messing around like a little child with guessing games - grow up be an adult and offer up for sale complete with product name

hey tony, not losing my wragg or anything, just saying an observation i have notice.
on the other places that i have talked about this the feedback has been great and not a bad thing has been said like this is boring just tell us etc, just on this forum people have said this.
i just find is strange really.
to me if someone else has posted this personally i would say great keep us upto date, look forward to hearing more, etc,

to be fair im not the one thats made this into a guessing game, i havent told anyone to guess it, people have commented on here with there guess thats all.

True but you were asked as early as the first reply what it was so why not answer the question?
No real need for the cloak and dagger stuff - either your posting to be helpful as the forum intended or like bosh creating a stir hoping to make money out of fellow members of the forum
If you had developed a product or an idea that's fair enough to keep details to yourself but a chemical readily available makes you look a bit of a twit To be honest

because i want to try it before i reccommend it and put my name to the recommendation. at the end of the day if i reccommend this without try it and something bad happend for some reason that word make me look worse than you say this topic is making me look.
i dont think anyone would reccommend a product without trying it out themselves,
like i said before i dont know what happend regarding bosh on here, but buy the sounds of it he was messing about watering the chemicals down to make the most money out of it, thats not what im hoping to do.
i hoping to get hold of it at a good price, then sell it on cheaper than some shops to save some money for window cleaners, because i dont have the overheads to pay for like shops etc do. i can afford just to make only a few quid out of each sale,
bit like i do with the controllers i also make, some people was selling them for £50 each, i sold them for around £30. my window cleaning is where i make my money. this is just something extra
