EXTREMELY SATISFYING INDUSTRIAL CLADDING CLEAN
Commercial warehouse soft washed and steam cleaned to remove years of muck, grime and a biofilm of algae, mould and bacteria.
Watch how I transform this heavily stained industrial warehouse at Lillyhall near Workington by softwashing.
Softwashing is a low-pressure cleaning method used to clean and sanitize exterior surfaces.
The term "softwashing" refers to the use of a gentle, non-abrasive cleaning solution and a low-pressure spray to remove dirt, grime, and other contaminants from surfaces.
The biocide solution is applied to the surface being cleaned using a low-pressure spray, which is typically between 60 and 100 psi. The solution is allowed to sit for a period of time to allow it to penetrate and dissolve the contaminants on the surface.
After the biocide solution has had time to work, it is rinsed away using a low-pressure hot water spray. Softwashing is an effective method for cleaning and sanitizing surfaces without causing damage, as the low-pressure spray is gentle enough to avoid damaging delicate surfaces.
One of the main advantages of a soft wash or as it's known softwashing is that it is applied at low pressure, which ensures that even delicate surfaces aren’t damaged. This makes it the perfect cleaning method for those who want to maintain the look of their property without causing any harm to surface.
It's different to Pressure Washing or Jetwashing in that it utilises low pressure to apply chemicals and rinse with hot water.
Softwashing kills the living spores of algae, mould, bacteria and organic biofilm that cold water pressure washing cannot remove.
Painting over the living biofilm of algae and mould will result in it striking through the paint after a short period of time.

    Nice job mate. I have a 1930 house with pebble dash render that has been painted a few times now but showing signs of needing to be painted. Before I do this is it worth looking at this method even though it’s painted?👏👏👏👍

    • @SoftWashGuy

      Having it SoftWash will result in killing the algae etc that stain and discolour render & pebbledash. It means you will be starting off with a clean surface which you can either leave or paint.

    Can you recommend a soft wash and or a method that will remove very light speckles of fence paint from k-rend please it’s supposedly water based fence stain (ronseal) but so far I’ve tried the pink stuff and cream cleaner nothings getting it off even with a circular brush on a drill. So I’ve been advised to use something that contains sodium hypochlorite do you think that will remove the paint? It’s only very light speckles
