Clean Adjacent Siding and Final Rinse
At 0:20 in
Getting WET! #workinprogress
What happens here
After thoroughly cleaning the upper siding, adjust your body position and the angle of the long wand to clean any adjacent wall sections. Continue using systematic, overlapping strokes, moving from top to bottom to maintain consistency. The video shows the operator targeting the area next to the previously cleaned section, carefully bringing the wand down to clean lower parts of the siding while avoiding direct, high-pressure spray on the nearby evergreen bush. If using a house wash detergent, apply it to the entire area being cleaned, allow it to dwell for the manufacturer's recommended time (without letting it dry on the surface), then perform a final thorough rinse of the entire section to remove any remaining soap residue, dirt, and loosened grime, ensuring a spotless and streak-free finish.
Goal: Clean remaining siding sections and ensure no residue
