    I’d like that percentage too.
    I wonder how bleach would work? It’ll certainly make the roof slippery

    I am totally abandoning bleach. It is so toxic when you apply it, even a light dilutions. Oxiclean ftw from now on. I use it in my laundry and it does just as good a job as bleach and doesn't make my clothes smell like bleach. Winning.

    I posted the mix ratio / pics of the box on my previous post jo191145.

    With gutters catching any dribbles, the ladder is spared. :thumbs:

    No bleach.

    We must both be weird then because I do that often as well. Sometimes I am in work thinking about stuff and having a picture to reference helps immensely.

    Great stuff with the oxiclean, I have moss building up on area's of my roof as well. My chimney top need to be sealed as well, its pretty bad been putting if off.

    Sounds like a day on the roof for me between sealing, moss, cleaning out liner and might as well slap up some xmas lights while am at it..........:whistle::whistle:
