Best-selling treatments for the autumn and winter seasons include ECOPROTEC ® Black Spot & Algae Remover . Ideal for tackling slippery paths and patio areas , Black Spot & Algae targets organic residues , including black spot , white spot , lichen , moss , algae and other stains caused by damp and slippery leaf matter . Treatment in the autumn , in particular , breaks down microspores and hyphae before they colonise .
ECOPROTEC ® Black Spot & Algae Remover is applied neat to swept surfaces with a plastic watering can or light pressure garden spray ; the formula then breaks down residue in 2-4 hours and removes stains . Surfaces are then hosed with clean water . If undiluted solution comes into contact with plants and lawns , rinse with plenty of water . The treatment is suitable for all types of natural and artificial stone , including concrete pavers , and should be applied during a morning or afternoon of fair weather . Pets should be kept off surfaces during application and until the process is complete .
Following treatment , natural stone surfaces can then be protected with an ECOPROTEC sealer ; the range includes the Ultimate Sealer , Patio Sealer and Colour Enhancing Sealer . Barrier treatment , ECOPROTEC Pre
Grout Protection is recommended for matt porcelain pavers . All four treatments are water-based and provide protection without altering appearance ; this prevents absorption of moisture and organic particles , reducing staining and the spread of algae , mould and black spot .
