    I had to make a comment because my you tube video footage was copy and edit on here. In the Northwest especially OR and WA every roof has moss. Gently removing them with a plastic brush will not do the roof any harm.
    I totally agree with the point of this video. Some people uses metal brush or brushing excessively. It remove more granule in the process which is not what softwash intended to do. Softwash is intended as a pretreatment (prevent). Post-treatment is when moss get too heavy you should gently broom them down as much as you can.
    Not all moss would come off the roof. Some would come off easy and some would not. Brush lightly to get the big and easy one off the roof then apply SH. Making sure the SH soak through the moss into their roots and not just on the top.

    On a good condition asphalt roof it won’t harm anything by brushing the shingles lightly, BUT if the shingles are showing their age, it doesn’t take much to knock the granules off once they start drying up!! Why do you think the gutters start filling up with granules on older roofs?

    Get some zinc or copper strips , have a roofer install then at the top of your roof, right under the ridge cap, after having the moss removed by a pro, this will help keep the moss from growing back. New AR (algae resistant) shingles have copper flakes in them, to keep the moss from growing on the shingles.

    That's the problem with some "positive" videos they often have negative effects
    Like turtle shell cleaning anima "rescue" cause if you check the videos carefully and the locations they film
    Is obvious the owners of the channel put them there and making it worst for animal just to learn ad revenue

    After scrubbing the granules off the roof can’t you just coat the roof with Flex Seal?🤦‍♂️
