Basically this stuff.

Excellent point. And, the dye disappearing in a few minutes is certainly a good thing.

That’s right, pulling soap-colour, rinsing-no colour.

Apple wash

Is it made for roofs? Where do you get it at?

It’s made to be used with soft wash setups with proportioners. The color won’t show if you’re downstreaming or batch mixing.

@anon37135677 looks like powerwash.com just came out with stuff that looks just like apple wash. I like Apple wash but stuff is really pricey compared to snotmenade. Almost double the price just to see a wall turn pink for 20 seconds.

i dont know about you fellas but I would 50/50 mix that apple wash with another surfactant and make it go a bit further if your after the colour. Check the SDS sheets of course.

Interesting. Doesn’t say anything about only working with soft wash systems.

Works with a proportioner or a dual barb injector for downstreaming. They posted a video the other day of using the apple blossom using a dual barb. There are many guys that use that same set up with Apple wash as well. It’s a surfactant with a marker dye. You can still batch mix or DS like normal and still get the surfactant and cover scent, just no marker dye.

@seanktm just to touch on this further there is an alternative that can be used with a proportioner much like what apple wash does, I guess you would mix the dye with your surfactant and will be transparent again once the bleach takes the colour out of it in a few minutes. Very cost affective alternative if all your after is the marking dye. Pressure Washing -Spray marker like apple wash being down streamed with 3 way ball valve to wash - YouTube

If it’s not too much to ask please do a sample on a piece of wood and maybe some concrete to see if it will have any staining properties with SH mixed with it.

Sorry, have not had a chance to test it on concrete or wood yet. I’ll definitely keep you guys posted when I do get a chance to test it on my own place.
