0 Pat Norman 18 Report post Posted November 21, 2009 A strong roof mix always worked great for me. Maybe add a little butyl or caustic on regular brick. Was that a stucco chimney or painted brick or what? Great job! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 PressurePros 248 Report post Posted November 21, 2009 Looks like a paint job! How are you applying, Brian? Also, do you find you need pressure when removing rust? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 Doug Dahlke 114 Report post Posted November 22, 2009 I have used ox on a bad rust stain going down an vinyl covered chimney. Didn't need any pressure to get it off. Just let it dwell and rinsed it off with a garden hose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 PressurePros 248 Report post Posted November 22, 2009 Stucco is a funny beast. Up here we have much more real stucco than what the guys in the south call stucco (Dryvit). I've encountered new construction with a bad stucco mix and oxalic or phosphoric will cause efflorescence. Its not commonplace but it does happen and having SafeRestore in your inventory isn't a bad idea. Brian, I asked about the application and pressure because of the yellow noodle. We can usually get away with X-Jetting a buffered acid on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 RSuds 24 Report post Posted November 22, 2009 (edited) We just moped it on and let it sit for a couple of minutes, as we got higher we had to scrub it on 2 -3 times. We really did not use any pressure. I use the safe restore a lot under the windows on stucco and they come out great as well. It is a little expensive so that is why most of the times we mop it on. It looks like I will use some safe restore on this Mansion job that I think we are going to get it is 57,000 sq. ft. with a long wall around the property.
