if you can't get F9 (or run out), a decent alternative is "Rust Stain Remover" by Goof Off. I can find it locally at Home Depot.

Oxylic acid is another alternative.

Chris,

I know everyone already jumped in, but I wanted to share a few photos of a job we did last summer, that was very similar to what you are looking at. We used F-9 and had great results. I also made a post here when we did it, this is the link

Whats F9??

Michael Wedge · Approved Exterior Cleaner

Aloha Chris

Im pretty sure the F9 will work for that job, but do not confuse the irrigation stains in that picture to our red dirt stains that are very familiar in appearance. We have a dirt that is very similar to Georgia clay and is extremely difficult to remove. I have some F9 if you would like to try it. Give me a call.

Chris Mozick · Approved Exteior Cleaner

Mike I'll take you up on that offer. Thanks I'll call you tomorrow.

Chris Mozick · Approved Exteior Cleaner

Did demo f9 worked. Thanks will be ordering a few cases. Thanks Mike for your help.

what is the application process for f9. recommended to use a portable sprayer and treat trouble areas, then rinse with clean water??

Chris Mozick · Approved Exteior Cleaner

You have to follow the directions very closely, that product works like magic. It cleaned that whole building with 3 light applications. I used a 1.5gpm pump to speed the process up but most of the time I use a pump up sprayer.

No. There are many different products for oil/grease. Take a look at the library here as well as the search bar. We started using Dragon Juice last year at the end of the season. A friend of mine started using it with great results so I bought a gallon that will make five.

You can fin Andy Vickers on FB. He is extremely helpful.
