Busy, busy, busy with cleaning but have time to post up an entry for "Wash'n Wednesday". Washed a home for a customer most of it came out to my high standards but wanted to post up these photos to show what "real world photos" are and look like no enhancements, no brightening, no lighten or blurring, just the work I did. The trouble was a pellet stove which has been exhausting and baking on the exhaust for over a year. I could not get these areas and eves cleaned to 100% without danger of damage from high pressure or using harsh chemicals. Two things Cleaned by Pete does not do or use on a home.

With over a year of baking and heat on this vinyl. Pellet stove exhaust, baked on soot, creosoted stains, repeated or continuous heating opened the pours of the soft vinyl and lets the hot exhaust bake and settle in. It left me with quite a challenge. Not hiding our work or pictures but showing you our customers and perspective customer what can be expected. While is is a very unusual problem Cleaned by Pete did the best cleaning that this circumstance would let me do. Putting our best foot forward. Too much pressure can cut, pit or engrave the top coat of the vinyl opening it up to the elements which would cause more damage long term. Using harsh chemicals can burn, pit or engrave the vinyl in much the same way. Even had scrubbing this area and working this area several times the embedded stains refused to come out all the way.

With out using harsh chemicals on the vinyl or dangerous pressure these are the best results for this years cleaning. Trying not to over promise but what can be expected in this unusual situation.
