new to wood cleaning

[sflasealcoating 14]

hello all,

I have been a member of this site for a while. I own South Florida seal coating, we specialize in concrete paver and concrete cleaning and sealing. Unfortunately i know very little about cleaning wood, but am thinking about adding that to our services. I know many people have many diff products that they use, but for a generalized cleaning of old wood w / mildew/mold, what is the best to use.... bleach?? chlorine?? ive seen a few posts about 12% bleach blend with water? I know these may all sound like newby questions but well, when it comes to wood i guess i am lol.

Thank you for any info,

COdy

There are times when bleach has a place just like all the different chemicals and tools we use. There are other times when it shouldn't be used IMO. Check out the above.

Using Bleach to remove mold and mildew is always the best idea and Spraying a Sufficient Amount of Sporicidin or Microban will protect any Mildew and Mold Affected Areas. Make Sure You have to Read First the Directions of Applying and Have an MSDS Form to Accompany it.

I dont think you have read the topic in which bleach use it queried...

Many Wood Restoration companies are adverse to its use and others use it quite to the contrary.

Your response sounds like one referring to indoor situations...am I correct?
