Roger C Posted May 18, 2022 Report Share Posted May 18, 2022 Hi all So Ive tried cleaning my roof with Auto glym roof cleaner and whilst it doesn't come up too bad it still have these green marks on it, what's the best way to get rid of them? Also the roof is starting to look a little faded, is it worth dyeing it?? has anyone on here successfully dyed their roof? Rog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iborguk Posted May 18, 2022 Report Share Posted May 18, 2022 (edited) Re the green/algae/moss Google Milton tablet, diluted in warm water. Re the roof colour/treatment/dye options there will be a range of opinions re Renovo/Protex/Autoglym and similar….

Codfanglers Posted May 18, 2022 Report Share Posted May 18, 2022 ^ +1 for the Protex system. I went from blue roof to black a year ago and it still looks good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger C Posted May 20, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 Ive picked up some Milton tablets, how many should I use and how much water? The wife is concerned that Milton is a bleach and may bleach the roof so I want to get this right. Rog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MickH Posted May 20, 2022 Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 Another vote for protex. Got all the green stuff off mine and then made it look like new Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A tablet in a litre as a guess.? Try a bit on a bit of the roof that’s hidden when it’s up and satisfy yourself that nothing bad is happening.
