    no idea why u cleaned it as it will just come back - they need to deal with the main issue or its all a waste of time
    Really good cleanup though but sadly it will come with the amount of rain we have in the UK

      @@SMOUT_ don’t suppose there is some sort of sealer or application that could be applied to the bricks and areas that are creating the salt to hold it back? Or could the patio be treated so the salt doesn’t bond to the surface as before?

    First of all it is a great job - well done.
    At the same time I understand what you said about mixing a soap with the acid, but I didn't fully get why you chosed this solution. First of all, the chemical reaction between soap and acid might be really violent, can create deadly fumes (eg: chlorine+acid=chlorine gas - deadly in 3 minutes) and the soap is lowering the efficiency of the acid. You might want to try other official acid mixtures that are foaming without adding soap.

  • @richarddunk7875
    @richarddunk7875 8 днів тому

    I know this might sound like a silly question and its probably come up at some point before but I’m new to the channel and pressure washing. Household bleach contains Sodium hypochlorite. Im guessing theres a good reason why professional pressure washers don’t use it Im just curious why. I was gonna use it on my patio for the black spots but don’t want to make a mistake. Thanks

    • @SMOUT_
      @SMOUT_  8 днів тому +1

      It will work perfectly fine mate, but we're using 15% SH, I think household bleach contains about 2-3%. Still does the job though, you'd just adjust your dilution.
      Also check the surface is safe for bleach, not all patios are 👍🏼
