Soft Washing New Brick?
Permalink  
 


Got a call to wash new construction project, construction company asid the brick that was laid had a protective wax on it and needs to be cleaned off fairly quickly.

Need some help.

What is the best method to use pressure / softwash?

What chemicals should be used?

Anything else I should consider?

Thanks in advance.

Got an answer from the brick company. 170+ degree hot water, low pressure and the stuff is suspose to melt off.

Contractor building a new target had it put on to protect the face during some back filling and concrete pours. I was scared it was a protective covering against grafitti. Your welcome.

just a side note to the hot wash Sh will most likely melt it away as well
Not sure if the wax is the same in Shoe polish but SH strips that away real quick
LOL had my old Combat boots on when I cleaned my roof now they look like my new Desert boots
