Cedar Cleaning and Restoration in Gleneden Beach, OR

Went with the full restoration rather than normal cleaning for this cedar siding home. Uses base cleaners, followed by acid brightener to clean and restore wood to its original appearance. Any organics and grey patina wood fibers in the first stage with the base cleaner. The base cleaner is similar to hydrogen peroxide, or oxy clean, using sodium percarbonate and detergents which makes it possible to clean the wood with low pressure after mixture is applied. The alkalinity from this step causes the wood to darken, which is why it is followed by the oxalic acid brightener to restore the pH leaving the cedar siding healthy and beautiful.
