Ryobi RY18PCA-0 ONE+ Patio Cleaner with Wire Brush (Bare Tool), 18 V

Product Information

An electric pressure washer is perfect for cleaning a patio. Not only is it lighter and more compact than a model with a combustion engine, it is also cheaper. Especially since you don’t need a high-powered device for patio cleaning, as 2,000 watts are quite sufficient for a pressure of 120 to 140 bar. If your patio has gutters or eaves that need regular cleaning, a gutter cleaning kit can be a handy accessory to have. This kit typically includes extension wands and specialized attachments that allow you to clean out gutters without the need for a ladder. Keeping your gutters clean can prevent water damage to your patio and surrounding areas. We need to take care of our environment so that our environment takes care of us. By using biodegradable patio cleaners, you effectively clean your patio without too much harm to your garden and your loved ones. Because these cleaners are not acidic you will find them more merciful for some soil types. Not only that, but some patio cleaner is better suited to pressure washing, some are biodegradable, and some are easier to use than others. So, we’ve lined up a cross-section of the best cleaners we know will make a difference to your patio surfaces. Some use a garden sprayer, some you can just apply patio cleaner and leave.

Algon is an organic cleaner that is also very affordable and I have always experienced good results with it. It usually starts to show results in around 7 days similar to Ultima Plus XP my runner-up patio cleaner. Our recommendation It contains Sodium Hypochlorite which can remove all sorts of dirt and debris. Having said that, it is highly toxic to plants, so a lot of care needs to be taken to not allow the solution near your plants.This Algon cleaner is safe to use on wood and outdoor hard surfaces, which gives you lots of options for what you can clean.

It arrives pre-diluted so there’s no need to mix this product before use. While you should still be fairly careful not to get this product on your skin, the fact that it arrives diluted means you’re not dealing with the same potency as you are with other cleaning products. There’s also no shelf life, so if you don’t manage to use the 5 L bottle at once, it can be saved for a later date with no concerns of the effectiveness dropping. This cleaner generally works very well and marks good value for money. It has a recommended dilution rate of 1:5 with water, and it can also be applied neat if needed. For less affected areas, opt for a dilution rate of 1:10. The following advice will help you make an informed choice and choose the best patio cleaner for your outdoor space.It will remove moss, mould and mildew as well as gently remove any unsightly stains from all outdoor surfaces. Despite its effectiveness, results take a couple of weeks to appear which is longer than other products. Results are long lasting, and there’s no scrubbing required on application. This is a reasonably slow-acting, albeit effective, product. For softer surfaces (e.g. sandstone or tile), then you'll require the nylon brush wheel (RAC818) - sold separately.
