Ray,

This is funny as well as sad. I hope that is not chemical all over the hood and fenders of the truck.

Off the top of my head I can think of at least four cleaning methods that would be safer than this. Obviously my first choice would be the soft wash, second you could rent a lift. A scissor lift would help you zip around and get this job done safely and quickly, third you could xjet and forth you could suck it up and use an extension pole.

Pretty much any way they could do it would be safer than the way theyre going about it.

And I've washed at least 30 gas station canopies using only the soft wash process, so I know that works.

Ray,

Do you still have those pix of the canopy you used Bleach Wash on? How has the Terra Wash been going since we developed that last year?

AC, Terra Wash is working great! I'd compare it to EBC for its degreasing qualities. For the hoods though I've always just used SH & Greenwash, then a finishing rinse of bleach wash to kill and remaining SH.
