Remove white deposit on facade

Nothing is more annoying than when your facade is full of white stains or powdery efflorescence.
This white deposit is common in both new construction and existing homes and affects the neat appearance of your property.

The cause is usually lime efflorescence or salt deposits. Moisture in the masonry takes lime or salts to the surface. Once the water evaporates, white crystals are left behind. The result: a facade that looks dull and less well maintained.

Fortunately, there is a powerful cleaner that tackles this problem quickly and effectively.

A facade can develop white scale for a variety of reasons. The most common cause is lime efflorescence, where lime dissolves from the brick or mortar and migrates to the surface. Once the water evaporates, a white haze is left on the bricks.

In addition, salt rash is common. Here, salts crystallise in the stone as soon as moisture evaporates, creating powdery, white spots. Another possible cause is cement slurry or residual mortar after bricklaying. These can cause discolouration very similar to white scale.

In many cases, the scale appears within a few months of the completion of a house or wall. Nevertheless, even older facades can suffer from it, for example due to rain, leaks or high groundwater levels.

Using only water or a simple brush will usually not remove white deposits.
The crystals are trapped in the pores of the stone and simply reappear when it rains.

To really tackle this problem, you need a powerful cleaner that dissolves lime and salt efflorescence rather than just polishing away superficially.

Removing whitewash is easy with the right approach.
Follow these steps for best results:

1. Wet the stones with white deposits well with a garden hose.
2. Also moisten adjacent surfaces, such as paving, to prevent staining.
3. Dilute the product at a ratio of 1 to 4 with water (e.g. 1 litre of product to 3 litres of water in a back sprayer).
4. Apply the mixture generously to the soiling with a spray.
5. Leave the product on for 10 to 15 minutes, brushing in between with a hard brush, patio cleaner or brown toad.
6. Rinse the treated surface thoroughly with clean water.
