Mixing:
In a five gallon plastic bucket, combine one gallon concentrate
with four gallons water to make five gallons solution, enough to
clean/prepare approximately 750 sq. ft. Each gallon of solution
cleans approximately 150 sq. ft. If less than five gallons solution
is needed, use a plastic measuring device to combine one part
concentrate with four parts water. Stir for one minute or until
solution is thoroughly blended. Do not mix with any other
products. Rinse plants with water after exposure.
Pre-rinse grass, plants and shrubs surrounding wood
structure to be cleaned. Cover any exposed aluminum
surfaces to prevent corrosion. Sweep away surface dust, dirt
and debris. If the surface is hot to the touch or in direct
sunlight, dampen with fresh water to cool.
Application:
Apply when outside temperatures are between
40°F. and 90°F
Pre-wet surface with fresh water.
Working on 20 sq. ft. at a time to maintain optimum surface
wetness, apply solution and let sit and foam for 10 minutes.
If solution dries prematurely, keep it wet with additional
solution as needed.
On horizontal surfaces:
Apply solution with a pump sprayer, airless sprayer,
brush, mop or roller.
On vertical surfaces:
Apply solution with a pump sprayer or deep-nap roller,
working from the bottom to the top of the
structure.
Brush or Pressure Wash:
Brush:
Briefly scrub surface with Wolman WOODWORX® Deck
Brush or other stiff, short-bristle brush, using moderate pressure.
Pressure wash:
Use a 40° tip and 1,500-2,500 PSI for pressure-treated wood
and hardwood, 500-1,000 PSI for Cedar and
Redwood. Move lengthwise with boards to avoid cut marks
across grain. Either technique helps ensure old surface is entirely
removed.
Rinse:
If pressure washing is not employed. After brushing, rinse
thoroughly with a garden hose, using the highest pressure
nozzle setting available. On a vertical surface, continually
rinse brightened areas to avoid streaking. Rinse any wood
fibers off surrounding surfaces immediately. When dry,
wood surface should appear clean, bright and free of mildew
and algae stains.
Recommended Number of Coats – Apply one (1) coat,
and allow to sit for the entire recommended time of 10 minutes.
Heavily weathered, extremely dirty or badly stained areas may
require a second application.
