Title: Cleaning Algae from walls...
Post by: C-Thru. on May 07, 2015, 05:32:37 pm
Hi Guys,
I'm getting lots of inquiries about cleaning Algae from walls, mainly rendered walls.
Does anybody offer this service? and what chemicals / products are the best to use and where do you buy them?
Prices to charge? is it worth going into as an extra service for a Window Cleaner who also pressure washes?
Any and all help greatly received.
Goochie

Have ordered some MMC-Pro for now, will see what results that gives 1st.
Algoclean pro looks good but twice the cost.
Any other products you guys can recommend please??

Algoclear is much cheaper than MMC-Pro …by a long way.
Are you a DJ  and window cleaner?

Carl

No can't reach a deal with the supplier where we can make any margin on it.  But contact Chris Scott he can get the product from someone else but it is not allowed to be called Algoclear but I think its the same.  I am meeting a German Company next week who apparently have another product the same or better so I will keep you updated
