This 4-litre Rustins Algae Remover is for homeowners and property managers looking to restore the appearance of outdoor masonry, brick, concrete, and stone surfaces marred by algae and lichen. Its key benefit is an effective, ready-to-use formula that tackles unsightly growth with simple spray or brush application. A key caveat is its unsuitability for acid-sensitive stonework, painted surfaces, or decorative metalwork, requiring a test patch first. The product offers a water-based, ready-to-use solution for cleaning patios, walls, and paths, with a coverage of approximately 5 square metres per litre.
