Injecting only gives you a mix that is strong enough to clean exteriors and even then some spots on exteriors are so black that you need to apply a stronger mix. Injecting mixes about 10% give or take depending on the injector you will not get any more than 20% at best which is not sufficient enough to cleana roof efficiently however it will clean after 7 or 8 coats and 8 hours of work on a 2500 sqft roof which should only take 30 minutes to spray and clean completely, of course rinsing adds about another 30 minutes.

You'll learn as you go and find ways to be more efficient. Here is a video of a 40% mix on a tile roof I made. Not the best tutorial since I did it on a whim and made it to battle this guy who uses a surface cleaner to clean tile roofs who says his way is faster than mine.

Here is the link: http://youtu.be/pJgICdjzRbY

These magic new products at HD or Lowes heck any paint or hardware store is garbage. Using a surface cleaner on tiles is destructive and takes too long to not last that long and come back uglier than before.

I have always made sure from the day I started Tropical that rule one: Keep It Simple!

If a product was made that cleans roofs like SH I would try it, I am sure everyone would. It would still have the potential to harm plants if it can kill Gleo Mag so all the same steps would have to be taken so that it would not happen.
