Over the years I've thrown a lot of money at a lot of different products to clean my deck. This one worked the best and didn't make my debit card scream either. Previous products I used appeared to work but when dried the green algae had reappeared. And that was with a good scrubbing as well. Very frustrating after several hours of work to look out and see that as you crack your first beer. This product eliminated the green and the black mold. It does work fast. You can see a difference before you get a chance to brush. Very pleased with it and highly recommend.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm sure others will appreciate your input as well! Thank you for visiting and have a great day.

We've used this product multiple times on decking, concrete, vinyl siding and decorative vinyl fencing. It does a great job especially for touch up in between having the house professionally power washed. It does an especially good job on vinyl siding with no scrubbing in our case. The vinyl fencing i do go over with a large soft brush after the product sits for a few. I find it works much better on cooler, cloudy days so it doesn't dry too quickly. I absolutely prefer this product over dragging out that heavy power washer. You can also do small sections or projects at a time as your energy allows, lol

Hi Pamela, thanks for your feedback. I'm sure others will enjoy reading about your experience with the 30 Second Outdoor Cleaner. We also found this product to work really well! Thank you for visiting and have a great day.

Thank you for the video review. We are a fence and deck contracting organization. Always looking for new products to work efficiently and effectively and according to budget. This helps for sure for those fence jobs. I wonder as I've seen products on Instagram which work better and just as fast to restore the original look as with sanding. Thanks again for the review

It’s been like 6 months and the siding still looks brand new. No algae regrowth. I ended up buying a gallon and did my parents house and then did my in-laws house. Made me starting to think I could start my own siding business with this stuff and charge half the price. Just an FYI if you’re spraying up a tall wall be sure to where goggles. I got some back spray in my eyes and it was quite uncomfortable.

Hello Audrey, If your deck is located under a canopy of trees, like ours, cleaning it yearly is probably a good idea. Yearly cleaning will be much easier than waiting a couple of years to do it. Thank you for visiting and have a great day.

For all jobs you need to scrub or brush but they won’t say that in the advertisements because then people wouldn’t buy it. Even if there’s a light layer of algae you need to brush it for it to become clean. Stop saying spray on spray off. Vinegar will do the same thing with brushing. 30 seconds spray on spray off I don’t think so. It should be called wait 15 minutes, then scrub and rinse off.

Hello Shelly, We have done it both ways and the scrubbing is minimal. The process of using the pressure washer takes longer. Thank you for visiting and have a great day.

@mediasmoker

One problem with pressure washing is that you are also lifting the wood grain, and even removing a layer of wood every time you pressure wash...which opens the grain & allows more spores, dirt & debris to penetrate deeper into the wood. The only solution to fix that problem is sanding the entire surface, then re-sealing. Most people and contractors use too high of pressure, causing future problems for the decking, later experiencing cracking, checking, etc. Even on concrete, the aggregate will eventually become exposed if using excessive water pressure per occurrence or over a series of treatments over time. If using a cleaner is effective in softening, dissolving or lifting the grime, and the product doesn't damage the surface...then you are able to minimize any damage caused from excessive (or any) water pressure which otherwise has the potential to deteriorate the wood surface. Otherwise, cleaning is better than not cleaning.

What's the point if you have to scrub your ass off. I thought the whole purpose was to spray it and rinse, not use elbow grease to make it work.

Keep in mind we have full coverage of our deck with trees and the dark black is tree sap. Without the tree sap, we would not need to scrub the surface. Also we did not scrub all that much. In the past we have used our 3100 PSI pressure washer. The finished job looks the same but the pressure washer takes more time and is a LOT more work. Thank you for visiting and have a great day.
