Frequently Asked Questions
I need to clean oxidation from a metal roof?
Try SWAB Brightener.
What is the dilution ratio and expected square metre coverage for SWAB?
The oxidisation remover is diluted 10:1 so a 5L bottle makes 50 Litres. I suggest you may get 1:1 on the coverage, so you may need as much as 8 or 9 bottles.
What types of vertical surfaces and defects is SWAB designed to treat?
SWAB is a professional-grade exterior cleaning solution specifically engineered for the removal of stubborn 'tiger stripes' on gutters, treating oxidized paint, and instantly brightening dull or faded Colorbond sheets, garage doors, and painted metal surfaces.
How do I apply SWAB to get the best results?
Dilute the solution to our recommended 10:1 ratio with water and apply it directly to the surface. It requires light agitation or manual scrubbing action to fully activate and break down the oxidation layer. Once complete, rinse or wash down with controlled pressure to reveal a vibrant, restored finish. We always recommend performing a small spot test before full application.
What environmental and safety precautions should be taken when using SWAB?
SWAB is toxic to aquatic life and must not be emptied directly into stormwater drains. When applying, avoid inhaling any mist or overspray drift. Operators should always wear appropriate protective gear—including safety gloves, eye protection, and face protection—and wash hands thoroughly after use.
