Thank You Thank You Thank You!!!  No applause Please! LOL biggrin

Why Ask WHY!???

 

Don't Add water to the beer! But do drink the beer water???
There is a lesson here...  SHC is all you need and Maybe a surfactant...

Actually SHC/Water is ALL you "need"
But the addition of a detergent or TSP makes a better looking roof cleaning.
TSP is a POWERFUL cleaner that cleans much better then most any surfactant.
It is also Alkaline, and "boosts" the cleaneing power of SHC.
It IS "hard to use" compared to just dumping dish soap in there.

Apple Sauce has Borax in it with the TSP.
It lasts longer between cleanings.

NP 9 surfactant thickens the mix up, but weakens it.

UHHH? Where are you from. What City and State.. ??? It is not on your profile...  Maybe I missed it! About your plants. It is to late for the last batch.. Next time take the extra 30min...45min and pre water then cover your bushes and plants. It may seem like alott of extra work on the front end but on the back end you won't have the killing fields with your clients plants....

Trust me! Take the extra time to protect the plant life on the front end.....!!!

Been there! Done that. Learned that lesson 8 years ago...

SHC only has about two hours kill time.. After that it turns back into salt water...

If the client has no gutters then it may behove you to go ahead and do a quick rinse on the roof before you uncover the plant life... 

Note:
On a hot day do not use clear plastic or you will cook your plants... Brown tarps from Home Depot usually work out pretty good. Do not forget to pre water...

Nature of the Beast!  Some times roofs are bad bad bad!  It will come out in the wash.. Maybe your next roof won't require but 50 gallons of SHC...

Mix 1 to 1 5gal of SHC + 5 gal water

Sometimes It Just Beeees That Way!!!aww

At least learning something kinda softens the blow a little. Sorry for your bad luck.
