Phostrogen path, patio, and drive cleaner
Why should I wet the surface to be cleaned first
Wetting the surface to be cleaned ensures that when the cleaner is applied it works at the surface layer and is not absorbed deep into path, patio or drive where it would not work as effectively
What surfaces can it be used upon
It can be used on any outdoor hard surface. It is not effective on loose surfaces such as gravel and pea shingle
Is it safe to use around desired plants
It can be used safely around plants once diluted. Avoid getting the concentrate onto desired plants
Why do I need to shake the bottle before use
The formulation of Path, Patio & Drive Cleaner comes in two phases, a blue and a transparent layer. These need to be mixed in ensure correct function. Once mixed the solution will remain ready to dilute for a few hours
Will it remove oil deposits
Whilst it may remove some surface soiling of oils, it is unlikely to remove oil that has soaked into the surface itself. Use a proprietary cleaner
Is it acid based
No there are no acids or caustic ingredients in Path, Patio and Drive Cleaner
How does it work
Path, Patio and Drive Cleaner works initially by separating the soiling from the surface. This it does by driving between the two layers with electrostatic ally charged molecules. It then stops these removed particles from resettling by encapsulating them in a special polymer coating. Path, Patio & Drive Cleaner also has special additives which dissolve the slimes that build up making surfaces slippery and dangerous
Will it work on coloured concrete paving
Yes, unlike acid based cleaners, the Phostrogen product will remove soiling and stains but will not change the colour of the paving.
How often should I clean
Path, Patio and Drive Cleaner leaves a protective barrier on the surface treated. This will increase the intervals between cleaning, though not eradicate the need all together
