Thanks jettaway - i didnt actually use any hypo however i think to get a perfect result on the top one some hypo would have to be used as theres a couple of black spots still there.



Andy, good luck mate! Remember your wellys and waterproof trousers. I didnt and came home soaked - its a yanmar diesel 15lpm 200bar. I purchased it off Rob it was one of the 3 he had for sale.

Oh right, wow, patio was that black and there was no lichen, fair play.. Wish more of my jobs were like that :-)

Guess i got lucky lol. How would u go about it if u had to use hypo on that area? Just for future reference.

Algae removal from house ready for re-painting - algoclear left for 24 hrs then washed off
Finish wasn't normal render, but a sprayed on acrylic paint type stuff

[Jettaway]

That's some good work Smudger, how much product did you go through?

Did you wash off with pressure or just use the flow from a pressure washer?

[Neil Jones]

How did you get algo clear to foam?

Rob that's the picture I wanted to post, I cleaned inside the box, didn't go over the lines either

[Smudger]

I made it slightly stronger than directed ie. 30 to 1 instead of 40 to 1

Yes we still had to pressure wash off using vario nozzle on quite a wide angle, it all came off without any hassle, although the chimneys were awkward as the telescopic lance was rubbish  

I not sure if using the algoclear made it easier to remove or not ( lack of experience ) but the builder specified a fungicidal wash, so that's what he got.

1 hour to apply, and it took 4 hours to wash down

Isn't it supposed to foam    Used brand new back pack, so no chance of any g101 residue from previous work..


Sorry jet away I used about 1.5 litres of algoclear

Darran

[Jettaway]

Was it the algoclear pro. Did it remove a lot of the algae on its own or did that take a bit of work with the lance afterwards?

[Smudger]

Yes was the pro version

No didn't take any off, but it was a quick brush on, yes it came off (all of it) with a single pass of the lance
