Fence Cleaning Top 10 Best Practices:
- Always perform a test area when cleaning a fence. You never want to apply chemical to a large section before testing out a very small section to ensure satisfactory results.
- Never use bleach when cleaning wood fences: We never use bleach when cleaning fences, and neither should you. It damages wood, and un-naturally whitens wood. Bleach should never be used to clean a fence.
- Go light on chemicals before you go heavy: Never apply the strongest chemical solution first. Always start with a more diluted solution, and if it does not work work your way up to a stronger solution little by little. You never want to go nuclear when cleaning fences.
- NEVER use rotating tips/turbo tips, roto-nozzles on a wooden fence: These are also known as – roto-nozzles, dirt killers, rotary turbo nozzles. Using this type of pressure washing attachment will wind up ruining wood. The random pattern, combined with the enhanced pressure will cause raised grain, will cause indentations on fence panels that cannot be easily rectified. We strongly suggest not using these pressure washing attachments. Instead use a 40degree tip (white) with nominal pressure.
- Pressure does not do the cleaning: Don’t use high pressure when cleaning fences, the proper use of the right chemicals makes all the difference when cleaning fences. Never rely on pressure alone, you’ll make a mess of a fence.
- Never use a whirl-away/ surface cleaner on fences: These attachments are great for concrete, not so much for fences. The spinning tips will leave circular marks all over the fence surface that will not be visible until after you stain. Do not use these attachments on fences, they will not make the fence look good, and will add headaches to your project.
- Clean Fence When Weather permits: You never want to clean a fence when temperatures will be in the triple-digits. Optimal time to clean a fence is when temps are in the 55-90 degree range. Lower/higher temps than that will not yield satisfactory results due to chemicals’ efficacy being affected by low/high temperatures. We could write a book about this, so if you have questions, do send us a message, we’d be glad to answer.
- Don’t mix your own chemicals!!: We cannot stress this enough. Mixing chemicals yourself can lead to catastrophic results. Always use products from reputable wood restoration suppliers like Cabot, Wolman, Flood.
- Always clean a fence from the top down, or bottom up NEVER clean a fence side-to-side: Follow the orientation of the fence panels. The only time you should be washing a fence side to side is when the fence panels are installed in a horizontal fashion. always follow the orientation of deck boards, never go against the grain.
- Wear Eye Protection, wear protective clothing: Cleaning a fence is MESSY work!!! Be very careful and make sure you wear adequate eye protection as there will be a LOT of debris thrown your way when cleaning fence panels. Protect your eyes, you only get two of them!
