Cleaning Question

[Jhignutt]

Heres my question have you seen those portable buildings that use the metal pole skeleton and a tarp like material that cover the top, sides and back and front. This particular building is blue and is covered in green algae my solution was to take bleach and water and use the soap tip to rinse. Let me know what you think im up for any suggestions.

When you say tarp like material - is it canvas? If so, you will run the risk of discoloring the fabric when using bleach......also, good strong bleach can also weaken any threads that may be holding the tarp together. I believe there are chemicals out there.....maybe just good laundry detergent that you can scrub that won't compromise the color of the fabric or the integrity of what's holding it together. Can you post pics?

Percarbs(Oxygenated bleach) are good for cleaning this type of material.It may take several applicatiions but much safer than bleach.Yes residential use oxy-clean will do the job but remember you will use a lot more product than you would with a contractor grade product.

Is it something like this?

Is it something like this?

If so I don't know what I would use. Maybe some Simple Green. Possibly even Purple Power but that would be pushing it I think.

Yeah thanks SMITTIE1984 It looks just like that I used oxyclean and it took care of it with the help of the soap tip.
