They clean up great with softwash but should never be pressurewashed.

I would start with 2% and see how it works. you can always strengthen it. It should clean up fine.

Not worth messing with

I would do like John said and start with a 2% mix. As long as you don't agitate the surface in any way you will be fine. Just keep in mind it will absorb a lot of mix.

It will clean up with no problem. I have done my fair share in the last five years. Use very low pressure and take your time they clean up very well.

Has anyone contacted the EPA about cleaning this?
I know it's huge fines if you attempt to clean it up here and aren't licensed. Whole house has to be sealed off, suits, etc

Using low pressure water is no more than a rain event.
any abrasive blasting is against regs. If state law exceeds federal law state law rules, check your state

Yeah but is there anything that says bleach won't affect it?

I've done a few and can say with certainty that ch has no effect on them and would say that sh would be the same. As stated earlier as long as the surface isn't agitated you'll be fine.

Soft wash would be fine. You need to be careful for dust. Wet asbestos equals no dust. Wear a good mask to be safe... I used to do abatement, no more though

Figure in on cleaning the neighbors wall also. With the buildings that close together, there will be no way to avoid getting clean spots from over spray on the neighbors house.
Hi Guys,
Have an asbestos shingle sided home that needs cleaning, what are your thoughts regarding SH strength?
