You can use Green Remover for transforming driveways, render & masonry, tiles & slates, wooden fences, sheds & furniture, decorative stonework, as well as PVC guttering & downpipes.

Avoid using the product on metal surfaces.

Short answer: Yes - once Bostik Green Remover is dry.

Regardless of whether you’re using a product for cleaning green off patio slabs or tackling green mould on a patio, the key rule is simple:

• Keep pets and children away while the surface is wet
• Once dry, the area can be used as normal

If contact happens while wet, rinse with clean water as a precaution.

No, simply apply the product and let it dry. The green growth will loosen and can be left for the rain to wash it away. Alternatively, brushing the loose material or hosing it down is possible after a period of 24 hours.

Results typically appear within 1 to 5 days, depending on the level of green growth and weather conditions.

Short answer: Regular maintenance works best.

If you’re dealing with recurring issues like moss on tarmac driveway, green growth on patios or moss growing on driveway surfaces, applying a green growth treatment once or twice per year in spring and autumn works best.

Humidity levels depend on varying factors such as the environment and the people within it. However, as a general rule, 25% humidity is quite low for a home. Very dry indoor air can feel uncomfortable and may contribute to dry skin, eyes and nasal passages. Aim for around 40% to 60% where possible.

Humidity levels depend on varying factors such as the environment and the people within it. However, as a general rule, 70% humidity is high for a home, particularly if it remains at that level for long periods. Excess humidity can lead to condensation and create conditions where mould can grow. Aim to keep indoor humidity around 40% to 60%.

A chemical dehumidifier is a non-electric moisture absorber that uses a moisture-attracting substance, such as calcium chloride, to draw water from the air. The collected moisture then gathers as liquid in a container below.

The best waterproofing coating depends on the job:

• For leaking flat roofs and gutters, look for a flexible, weather-resistant coating that works on your particular surface. Bostik WATERSTOP Emergency Waterproof Coating provides an instant waterproof barrier and can be applied to materials including concrete, stone, wood, metal, clay, tiles, slate and felt, without needing a primer.
• For small cracks and hard-to-reach areas, Bostik WATERSTOP Repair Spray is a handy choice. Its flexible rubber formula creates a strong, waterproof coating and works on many outdoor materials, including roofing, metal, mineral surfaces, boards and wood. For larger roof and gutter leaks, a brush-on waterproof coating may be more suitable.
