Lichen Will Damage Your Roof So Clean it Today

Visually, section your roof off into areas and work to a pattern.
Spot spray the lichen within each section.
Leave for 15-20 mins (while it is still damp)
Then respray the lichen and the entire roof area of that particular section to ensure the lichen absorbs the Wet & Forget thoroughly.
The first application is to dissolve the waxy surface. The 2nd spray will then penetrate into the roots and give you a much quicker result.

Tank Water - Take these Precautions:

Disconnect the water supply to your tank for at least 2-3 weeks to avoid any chance of contamination.
You need 36ml of rain or 6 heavy downpours before you reconnect.
Check before reconnecting that the water is NOT foaming.

How To Prevent Lichen from Growing Back: It's all about Maintenance!

No matter how good any of these surfaces might be initially, and no matter how much was spent on quality materials, all exterior surfaces require some basic maintenance to keep them looking their best. Those who believe in the promise of 'maintenance-free' exteriors are dreamers. Maintenance keeps concrete, roofing, wood, decking etc in prime condition: The converse is true – a lack of maintenance allows these same surfaces to deteriorate.

Use Wet & Forget or Rapid Application as part of your annual cleaning programme as it will keep lichen at bay if used regularly.

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!

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!

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

Love this product, makes cleaning the house so easy and effortless and fast

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

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.
