This was the home we tested the base of the home and the door and shutters discolored and we found out the homeowner had those painted my husband washed that home for a local attorney who was assisting us with the first home and was familiar with the SW paint issues Another house was a new construction! In Florida homes need washed every 6-12 months. We rep told us there was an issue with pigments and that pressure washers are doing it incorrectly and we should never clean with a bleach solution even though that is the recommended cleaning solution on the SW website. Another home was about 3 years old and was also painted with SW paint and lab tested no Chemicals remained on the test piece. I have been doing this for 12 years and know Oxidation I have explained oxidation to my customers. The problem lies with the color pigments in certain SW paints(their words not mine) I wish it was as simple as oxidation but unfortunately it isn’t.

I have been in contact with a lawyer out of Miami who is willing to take this case she is putting together a class action lawsuit to protect this industry and home owners who are not informed of the pigment changes in certain paints causing a reaction to home washing and discoloring the home. Please help me by contacting me if this has happened to you. At this stage she is needing names, contact info and a short description of what happened. This is a huge battle and I cannot do it alone.

Sherwin Williams rep told us they changed the pigments and that they react with house washing but could not tell us how to remove the mildew or how to wash their product. Also this has happened to multiple contractors including Doug ********** his company had 3 homes change colors!
