As a homeowner, you know that pressure washing is an effective way to keep your outdoor surfaces clean. However, when it comes to interlocking, you should be aware that not all pressure washers are the same. Here are a few tips for pressure washing interlocking to ensure the best results without damaging the surface.
Choosing the Right Pressure Washer
Interlocking surfaces should be pressure washed with the right equipment. For best results, it is recommended that you use a pressure washer with multiple adjustable settings. You will also need a variety of nozzles to adjust the water flow. You can use a narrow nozzle to clean between the interlocking if you want to remove stubborn dirt or stains.
Cleaning Solutions
To properly clean your interlock, you must select the right cleaning solution. Many products are available on the market specifically designed for pressure washing interlocks, but be sure to read the label carefully before applying any product. Often, these solutions contain bleach, citric acid, and oxygenated cleaners, some of which can be toxic when misused. If you are using any cleaning solution near your property, always wear protective clothing and eyewear and test a small area first.
Rinsing Thoroughly
If your surface is not completely dry after applying the cleaning solution according to the directions, rinse off any residual residue. As a result, you won’t have to worry about stains or discolorations caused by chemical buildup on your interlocking systems. If you intend to use any type of detergent or cleaner on the exterior of your home, follow the product’s instructions. A cleaning solution may need to be rinsed multiple times before it can be completely removed.
While pressure-washing interlocks can effectively clean outdoor surfaces, there are a number of factors to consider before they can clean without causing harm. In addition to protecting their valued investments, homeowners and service providers alike can enjoy long-lasting results from their efforts by choosing the right equipment and cleaning solutions, including taking extra precautions like rinsing thoroughly afterwards!
