Cleaning/Stain Removal
- Wash the siding with an ordinary long-handled car washing brush that fastens to your hose, available at your auto supply store. It lets you wash the siding just like you wash your car.
- If the dirt is hard to remove, such as soot and grime found in industrial areas, wipe the siding with a solution of:
- 1/3 cup powder detergent
- 2/3 cup household cleaner
- 1 gallon water
- If mildew is a problem in your area, use the solution above, but substitute 1 quart liquid laundry bleach for 1 quart of water.
- If stubborn stains exist, check with your siding manufacture. Observe the precautionary labeling instructions on the cleaning agent container. Protect shrubs from contact with cleaning agents.
