Found interesting article, all green, no acid restoration

This guy claims, that they are not using any acids, only green products, and getting great results. I was wandering what do you guys think about it? Is it possible?

Why, what claims do they make that are false? Does chlorine bleach really damage the wood?

[plainpainter 217]

They're probably using just percarbonate bleach. I know guys will acid adjust after oxygen type bleach clean - but I don't think it's really

needed. Maybe that's what they're doing

There is a wood cleaner made by preserv-a-wood that is ph neutral and requires no acids. Ive used it, works very good, just to expensive.(Pre-mixed liquid concentrate) At least on Redwood, if you use citric acid after this cleaner, the wood will still lighten often times, depends on the wood. I dilute it down more than recommended & use for a maintenence cleaner sometimes. (does'nt darken the wood)
