How do you figure a days work, say clean 3 roofs , and you get going and about 10:30 am it gets so hot that  the love dries as soon as you spray it on, very little dwell time. And it stays that way till 4 or 5 pm.  How do you clean roofs in real hot weather. I am located in se   Fl , so it gets really hot down here in the summer.  How do you stay on any kind of schduel, not knowing what kind of day is comming up , in a couple of days or next week. Thank  ALL of you great people on the fourm. I cant wait till Im as knowlegable  on all this stuff. This fourm is a lifesaver  Steve  Thank You

Now Ugly shingles why did you suggest he give you a call? Why did you not write out what you had to say here? I like Ugly shingles and I wish you all the best but why would you suggest he call you?

Wet the roof in hot weather prior to spraying, it cools the roof so the solution does not evaporite. Also, I suggest starting earlier in the day when it's hot! We are usually on our jobs at apx 7am in hot temps so we can avoid being out in the hottest parts of the day.

 This is the answer. Also using a surfactant / wetting agent like Ammonyx Lo, to help keep it wet.
