Have used Cleansol BC on oxidation. It is hard to get in this area but does a good job. It does not get rid of the brush enterally as the claim but pretty close. Great before and after on the door. Great video.
I’ve heard those verticals lines referred to as “thermal bridging”. It basically has something to do with the transfer of heat in between each stud, causing the pattern on every stud line
Thanks for the knowledge! I figured it had to do with the spaces between the studs and now I know the technical term for it. Thx 👍
@@mountainviewsoftwash9135 I saw you figured it out later in the video, but I wanted to comment before I forgot.
@@truthseeker1532 appreciate you 👍
Such good info thanks for doing these kinds of videos.
Very informative videos, I was wondering what product are you referring to when you talk about leave on conditioner for the siding?..
Hey Jake,
Thanks for some awesome videos. I really appreciate them and they are helping me give better service to my customers. I’m way over in Michigan and have a question about the vinyl restore solution, what is it?
Thank you Jake,
Ken

How many gallons do you think it would take for a 1500 square foot house?
One gallon should work just fine 👍
@@mountainviewsoftwash9135 thanks alot man
@@swatson0061 you bet
I’d probably start at $1/sf on a fully sided house. Possibly higher, depending on how much elbow grease is needed
I typically will charge between a $1-$1.25 a sqft as well.
Yep I charge $1.20 1 customer was like hell no so I explained it will cost $5,000 to repaint but I'm restoring not cleaning she understands $2,000 is better than $5,000 lol smart lady

It would seem that it is the paint that is oxidized, not the siding per se. Unlike solid vinyl siding where the vinyl is oxidizing, Hardie Board and Hardi Plank have a film finish of paint. It would be interesting to find out if paints like Benjamin Moore hold up better than the Sherwin Williams paints in your environment... Here in the the northeast I've got Hardi products on my house with Benjamin Moore paint. I just checked my records and was surprised to find it's been 18 years since I painted the house! I haven't noticed oxidation being an issue compared to dirt. Only in the past two years on the north side has "green stuff" been a problem due to lots of rain. Is Sherwin Williams "the paint" in your area?
Couple questions, is there any harm in removing oxidation? In other words, is it just a build up that needs to come off? If you remove it, is the paint underneath going to break down further and can you protect that? Also, is oxidation always a tan color? I saw a green roof oxidized and it went from a tan color back to its original green.
How much you charge for a square feet for the oxidation remove
It is thermal bridging where the studs are.
Yep I recently found that out. Great to have name for it 👍
They would have to wash the home before a good quality paint job anyway?🤷♂️🤔re move the oxidation
In this case the customer didn't want to spend the money to have the home repainted. So we just removed the oxidation to appease the HOA. Came out good 👍
Where can I buy the restore product
Reach out to me directly I can help facilitate a purchase. 👍
Feel free to reach out to me directly.
I'm in a poor market so I would go as low as 150 on the garage door ox removal
$150 is not bad once you get the process dialed in.
@@mountainviewsoftwash9135How much do you charge? Have you tried LA totally Awesome for oxidation? Works good!
