Leftover love

RCIA Founder

Two weeks seems to be the max for left over mixed chemical.
Sometimes a bit more, depending on several factors.
I would not worry about under 10 gallons of left over chemical.
Just re mix a new batch, ignore the small amount of left over sauce, and you will be fine.

Keeping it out of direct sunlight will improve the time it can sit.

Ok thanks for the information guys! I greatly appreciate it!

Welcome back Chris! I have not had the chance to introduce myself. My name is Mike Lacey and I just started a roof cleaning business in Louisville, KY. The other veterans on here have been an enormous help and now with you back I feel even more confident about starting my new business venture. This is a great group and thank you for helping create it! Look forward to reading more of your posts in the future and learning more of what you have to offer! Great to see you back. Thank you

Yes Mike, there is a great group on here.
It was my dream to create a site with many people who could answer roof cleaning questions BESIDES me.
By reading the posts since I have been gone, it seems to be working.
Nice to meet you Mike.
My helper lived up in Louisville BTW.

Leave it in the tank. Use it as water next time

just today I called the company in my area that produces and sells me the % SH. I buy it in 1 gallon jugs.

He tells me that they start out in the jug at 13.5%, even though the label says 12.5% He told me that if I didnt open the jug that the strength would last only 3 months.

Just wanted to throw that in.

Mike,

I am in Louisville as well. If you have any questions just let me know, I will be happy to help.

If I have less then 10 gallons left over, I just consider it water and make my mix accordingly.

Oh wow ok. I didn't realize that someone else from Louisville was on here. Nice to meet you Mike! I promise not to steal any of your thunder on here! :) From what i've seen there aren't very many non pressure roof cleaners here in Louisville so I think we have something good going on here in Louisville! Thanks for you help on the posts by the way! Well Mike if there is ever anything I can do for you please ask and I'll try my best to help out. Take care buddy!

Use it on your fence line. Better than round up. LOL we did that for a homeowner with the run off from the gutters on a chain link fence and he is a happy camper now that he doesn't have to go through 30' of weedeater line every time he mows.

That's an excellent trick. I've been spending nearly $100 per year in my own (stone) driveway to keep the weeds and grass at bay but, not anymore. Best yet, I'm writting it off at the end of the year.

I use my roof cleaning trucks to control and kill invasive vines/plants around my home!
