How To Clean Polyethylene Clear Plastic Roofs for Tunnel Houses

Removing Moss or Black Fungi off Polyethylene Plastic Roofs:
When you use
 either 'Wet & Forget' or 'Rapid Application'

Rapid Application by Wet and Forget Quickly Cleans Polycarbonate Roofs

Cleaning Polyethylene Clear Plastic Roofs for Tunnel Houses: 
for Moss Removal / Black Fungi Removal 

  • Apply to a cool roof surface, preferably on an overcast day. This will keep the roof surface wet with the solution for longer. The solution also helps to loosen the grip of the shallow moss roots.
  • Make sure the surface is dry in order to get the best penetration of the growth with the least amount of evaporation.
  • Total saturation of the surface with this product is essential in order to obtain a good kill of the fungi, algae, lichen, moss & algae which infests these surfaces.
  • If the surface is particularly bad, do another application approximately one month from the first application.
  • Then allow the surface to weather naturally and nature will take its course. The growth decomposes while the rain gently removes it from the surface over time. Let Mother Nature do her thing!
  • After 1st application use as a maintenance tool. 
    Only re-apply at the first sign of regrowth.  Lichen Removal (See Below)

    Tiger’s Paw Shower Glass Restorer

    Jean Whiting

    I recently purchased your Tiger's Paw & Shower Witch to really clean my daughter's bathroom before her house goes on the market. I never thought that the glass screen that is at the side of the bath would be sparkling again, but, it does! I was very impressed with ease of using Tigers Paw. Amazing product. Kim the store manager was magnificent in ensuring that we understood the product and how best to use it. How great to have that commitment to the product she sells. Will definitely recommend!
    Hitman: Organic Weedkiller

    I've been looking for help to kill the weeds between the cobblestones in my court yard and the pesky ones that come up in my riverstone garden, without having to worry about my cat. This stuff is amazing. Weeds were gone in 2 hours and I could not be happier. I bought the concentrate and a sprayer so I can zap those weeds whenever they pop up with little effort. As an older person it's great to be able to spot spray without bending down. Very easy to mix as well so what's not to like. Already I have recommended to my neighbour and family. A must product in the garden shed!
    Shower Witch: Shower Cleaner

    Neal Cole

    Have been using a while now and can honestly say it really doesn't give any better result than what we were using previously. I disagree with the claims about the pleasant smell, the smell is very chemical and irritates my throat terribly. I doubt we will buy again

    Hit The Deck: Deck Cleaner

    Thao

    Product works well on pine decks, only requiring medium scrubbing with the long handled brush. However with hardwood decks such as our purple heart deck it does require A LOT of scrubbing. Had to get knee pads and scrubbed on all fours for half a day with a hand held brush. I think I expected it to be easier to be honest but still happy with the outcome.
    Wet & Forget: Outdoor Moss, Mould, Lichen & Algae Remover - Ready to use 2L

    Linda Beck

    Seems to work ok but ridiculously overpriced at $100 for only 2 litres. Try Costco who sell this product at a 30 % discount to what the manufacturer is asking or use similar products at only one third of the cost.
