Product details
About SWAM
Coining the phrase "wet and forget", SWAM is a concentrated, non-caustic, non-acidic detergent sanitizer designed for the one-step removal of moss, mould, algae, and grime. In short, a biocide. Its biodegradable formula reactivates with rain to provide long-lasting surface protection. It is suitable for a wide range of exterior surfaces, including roofs, concrete, natural stone, timber, and painted surfaces. One of our most popular products to date. Great for both cleaners who want to provide longer-term maintenance and post-treatment options, or for homeowners looking to treat organics and suppress mould growth.
Application Ratio
General recommendation is to dilute at 10:1 (or 5:1 if treating severe staining)
