Soft washing uses low pressure with a cleaning solution to gently wash siding and remove dirt, mold, and mildew from the surface.
While low pressure is great for not damaging siding and other surfaces around your house the soft wash system uses a high amount of sodium hypochlorite (SH).
The sodium hypochlorite found in the mix is what removes mold, mildew, algae, and other organic growths from the siding.
Using to much of this chemical may damage your siding or other surfaces along with potentially killing plants, shrubs and trees.
