He is talking about chems. dont use them, it shadows the rest of the area.

It will work but just hot water and the right pressure will remove gum safe.

We just were talking about this a few posts down..Spencer was asking the same thing. If you apply some S/H over the clean walks it will take care of the shadows. I mean just enough to cover without any run off...

Yes that will work, I have never applied it to the entire area. It would make the concrete look the same.

These guys do need to understand its not removing the shadow. Correct?

If Nicks done it I'm sure it works.

I usually get the gum up first with a 5 degree nozzle 0504 Then spray the entire area with a light caustic mix.. I always wet the grass and plnts down real good.. Then I run the surface cleaner .. The rinse again... No shadows at all...
