Answer This Question

A:  Wet & Forget cannot be used in a hose end sprayer as it will over dilute the product, leaving you with zero results.

    A:  probable won't get dilution rate right use pump sprayer

    by|May 5, 2023

      A:  I do not think so as the instructions ask you to mix it with water in a sprayer. The ratio is calculated based on a gallon of water. I used this product on a concrete patio, a brick walkway and on vinyl siding.

      A:  Unfortunately Wet & Forget cannot be applied with a hose-end sprayer as it will over dilute the product too much leaving you with zero results. Wet & Forget is best applied with a garden pump sprayer.

        A:  Usually only one application is needed. If your surface hasn't been cleaned in 10 years and you have thick black mold on a sidewalk or a roof with heavy moss and black stains, then after two months we may recommend a second application to fully clean the surface.

          A:  The product suggests that you reapply this product particularly in areas prone to moisture that have areas of buildup. It takes some time for this product to work in those areas and you will find streaking if it is not applied in the same area thus you will need to take a soft cloth and wipe with a downward motion to remove streaks.

          A:  During your application, keep pets off and away from the wet surface. Once the application of Wet & Forget is fully dry, the surface is fine for pets to be on.

            A:  The product is supposed to last a year however if you are cleaning outside mold and mildew it may take longer for it to take work.

            by|May 4, 2023

            A:  For green algae stains to clean up with Wet & Forget, you're looking at a few days to a week with a good rain. Darker mold stains and moss tend to take around a couple of months. Surfaces cleaned with Wet & Forget typically stay clean for a year, in some cases much longer. Wet & Forget gets to the root of the growth, this is why your surface will remain free from green and black stains for so long after applying.

              A:  Wet & Forget Moss Mold Mildew & Algae Stain Remover cannot be applied with a hose-end type sprayer as it will over dilute, leaving you with zero results. If a ladder is not an option, look into Trombone sprayers.

                  A:  Yes Wet & Forget can be used on exterior fabric surfaces to remove green algae stains and black mold stains. The day after applying, rinse the surface with water before someone sits on it. The wind and the rain will continue to rinse and clean the dead growth stains until spotless.
