Hey the deck looks great. I have always been nervous about using steam on raw wood that it might fur it due to high heat. But maybe that’s only the case for unsealed hardwood floors not decking ? Softwood like pine alright to steam clean as well ?
Again great results!
I don’t use heat. I used reduced pressure and a wider fan jet here.
What an amazing turnaround
Thanks! It turned out pretty good in the end.👍🏼
Yourself and Ben from flawless cleaning are really spoiling me this week with the decking videos ! You know they’re my favourite 😍😍
🤩🤩👍🏼😜
Great job, very satisfying work when the surface is that dirty. 👍
Thanks. Yes, this was a great transformation.👍🏼
Great job and very professional
Thanks Andy! I hope you are doing well.👍🏼
Good job as always, if you don’t mind me asking what mix do you use the oxalic at? Recently bought some but couldn’t really see any benefits from using it over my usual decking cleaner
I used about 100g in 10 litres of water.👍🏼
@@aemackintosh ok thanks think I was probably using it too weak
iv used a product before called Owatrol net-rol before. brings it back to pretty much new condition. then oiled with Owatrol textrol
Sounds good.👍🏼
Hi Ash, thanks for all your hard work doing these videos, very informative. May i ask, i have to treat some moss on tar mac, was thinking of just using some soft wash. What ratio would you recommend? Thanks very much.
You shouldn’t use sodium Hypochlorite on tarmac as it can discolour the tarmac. A biocide product would be best.👍🏼
Superb as always Ash! What chemical did you apply prior to cleaning?
Thanks! I used a weak hypo mix.👍🏼
Great job, what surface cleaner you using there? Thanks
Thanks. It’s a 12 inch mosmatic.👍🏼
Nice work. What made you choose that chemical over BAC?
The Hypo is faster acting, than BAC. The BAC would be better as a post treatment to help prevent organic growth returning again so quickly.
@@aemackintosh I was on about the Oxalic 😆
You used Hypo for the bleaching agent so I would have used BAC after but I'm still learning 😉
Great finish 👏
Hi Ash...while pressure washing a customers driveway few days ago my pressure washer suddenly stopped running and at the same time a puff of black smoke shot out of the exhaust,took her home checked the spark and it was ok...since then she wont start,any suggestions? thanks.
Not sure I can help you there. Sorry.👎🏼
Do you still mainly do window cleaning?
I have more help now to keep on top of my regular round so I still have time for the other things.👍🏼
Ashley, we're all worried about Paul. How's his injury?
Thanks for your concern. He is back on the tools and I will get him in a video again soon.🤩👍🏼
Hi, whats steam machine did you used? Im learning from your video.
The V-Tuf pressure washer with steam.👍🏼
@@aemackintosh can you use that on other surfaces like roofs or just primarily wood? Apologies if that's a stupid question. Learning as I'm going. 👍
Yeah, I tried it on a roof but I don’t think this is really powerful enough. Great for delicate work.👍🏼
@@aemackintosh the v-tuf pressure washer is that petrol or electric?
It is an electric pressure washer with a diesel boiler.
What would you tell the customer if they aren’t happy with this results?
Like, I still see some green stuff in the deck and I’m scared and uneducated in how to answer properly
I will always talk through the job with customer first and give them an idea of what the results are likely to be, and what steps might need to be taken afterwards (wood treatment/staining).
So it’s about managing expectations and knowing what you can realistically achieve.
have you got a link for that dish
Check out Rutland Pumps.👍🏼
how much is it so I no I have the right one
12 inch mosmatic 👍🏼
Decking upside down🤫
Aren’t these chemicals harmful to humans and plants??
I wouldn’t drink it.😉👍🏼 These are chemicals for professional use. If you are worried about surrounding plants you should wet the surrounding areas first and wash away with plenty of water afterwards and the plants will be ok.👍🏼
