Before we got the benefit of cleaning vinyl siding, most houses had aluminum siding installed on them to protect them from the harsh environment. Aluminum siding, at the time, was said to be fairly maintenance free unlike wood siding. As years went by we all figured out that aluminum siding did a nice job to protect our homes, but it definitely was not maintenance free.

Today cleaning aluminum siding can be a very daunting task, as aluminum ages a lot of times it will become oxidized. When oxidation occurs the paint becomes chalky, you can see it by rubbing your finger across the siding. If you are not experienced in using pressure washing equipment you can end up with a bunch of uneven wand marks resulting in an unsightly mess.

Special chemicals and extremely low even pressure are just some of the most crucial aspects involved in pressure washing siding.  It may be best to call a professional exterior cleaning company to help you with a project like this.
