Stain Removal Suggestions

Stains are a big problem that affects most everyone at some point in time. There are many different types of stubborn stains that have to be dealt with, such as grease, mold, mildew, graffiti, oil and many others. The process of stain removal can take a lot of effort and time. In fact, some stains may even seem hopeless but dont give up. There is a solution to your problem.

There are several different ways to approach stain removal but the most efficient way to remove stains is by using a pressure washer or a sandblaster. There are different types of pressure washers and detergents designed to help eliminate stains of all types. Below are a few suggestions that can help you when it comes to removing stains.

When you use a pressure washer for stain removal purposes your first objective is to make sure that you do not damage the object that you are trying to remove the stain from. For hard surfaces like metal and concrete you will want to maintain a pressure between 2000 ND 3500 PSI. If you are removing stains from softer materials such as brick or masonry keeping it below 500 PSI will be better to ensure that you do not damage the object.

The type of nozzle that you use will even make a difference in stain removal. A pencil-jet type nozzle is good for hard surfaces, but a fan-type is better for softer surfaces to avoid any damages being done. When using a pressure washer or sandblaster for stain removal make sure that you always use proper safety precautions, especially with the use of hazardous chemicals

If you are dealing with a grease or oil base stain, then using a pressure washer that steam cleans with hot water is the best. This is due to the fact that water heated above the temperature of 180 degrees will aid in lifting the grease and oil from the surface making it easier to remove. Some chemicals also work more efficiently when combined with hot water. Using a degreaser combined with a steam cleaner can be a very effective stain removal tool.

Many areas, especially big cities find that the need to remove graffiti is a regular problem that is growing all the time. The best method for this is using a sandblaster to help remove the graffiti from all types of walls and building. This method also works well for stain removal due to rust, backed on grease and other more permanent stains.
