5.0 out of 5 stars I was a skeptic but this stuff worked for me in Atlanta, May 2, 2009

OK, brought this stuff, 2 large bottles at Costco. Figured if it was crap as I expected it would be, I'd take it back since that's how Costco works. Watered it down as instructed and sprayed one side of two stone steps which were covered in black Mildew. About a week later I noticed a definite difference but wasn't blown away by the results. It does say though, give it a few weeks. Yeah, right. However, I am about a month into leaving it and it's amazing. One side is still the black mildew and the other is about 80% cleaner and brighter. I am going to give another little spray and I reckon in 2-3 more weeks, it'll be as new. I deliberately didn't scrub it either!

So, I live in Norcross, GA. By the river and lots of mildew so this is going to be awesome but I want to know why I haven't heard much about this stuff. How the heck does it work? It says it works with the wind and rain to slowly remove ingrained stains and keep stuff clean. It does exactly what it says it does and that for me, is a miracle in itself. I have also, for fun, sprayed some shapes into my black mildew driveway and I can already see it working, I just want to know HOW :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Wet and forget - Great moss and mold control, March 25, 2009

I first bought this product in mid-2008 after it was introduced to the US. I had tried about everything (bleach, other chemicals, powerwashing) to keep green moss and black mildew off my brick steps and veneer, concrete porch and sidewalk and pool decking. I was down to power washing (a 2 day job) twice a year and this was really deteriorating and spawling my brick. This product is truly remarkable. I applied it with no prep to black algae and green moss. In some cases the moss was up to 1/4 inch thick. It took a while, but within a week or two the moss began turning yellow, and then later turning to a powder as it died. Slowly the black mildew began to subside. The most remarkable thing was how long it kept repelling the moss and mildew. A year later, the moss and mildew has largely stayed gone. Now don't get me wrong, it is not perfect as there are still some areas that are prone to growth, but it has been almost a year. There were some really bad spots that it did not completely rid the mold, and I'm going to tackle those again this year. However, there were other spots, for example on my pool decking, where the mildew has stayed completely gone after a year. This year I'm going to try applying more frequently as it suggests in the literature, perhaps every 3 months. When I first investigated this product a year ago, I did not really believe all the hype on how good it worked. But, I can now say that this product truly works.

5.0 out of 5 stars Like good wine it improves with age., April 6, 2009

Used Wet and Forget on the brick floor of our front porch. Living in Florida this floor was covered with a green growth, especially following rains. As advertised, Wet and Forget did the job and it continues to remove more following each rain. The only reason I gave it a four star was it is not as efficient in cleaning a wooden swing, admittedly badly covered with mildew and mold. Great product and I will definitely order more when this is gone.

Now, two years later, I find that I only have to use this product once per year and I have enough remaining for 2012 from my original order of two gallons. I have raised my rating to five stars. This is a really great product!
