Professional Siding & Metal Oxidation Removal

Use the slider above to see the dramatic difference between chalky, faded siding and a surface fully restored by our oxidation removal process. If you run your hand along your home’s exterior and pull away a fine white powder, your property is suffering from severe sun oxidation.

The intense Texas sun constantly beats down on your vinyl siding, metal roofing, and painted garage doors. Over time, UV rays completely break down the top layer of the material, creating a chalky film that hides the true color of your home and makes the property look decades older than it actually is.

At Bonnie and Clyde’s Pressure Washing, we specialize in professional oxidation removal. We safely dissolve this chalky residue, extract the dead material, and restore your exterior surfaces to a bright, vibrant finish.

The Danger of Standard Pressure Washing

When dealing with sun-faded siding, many uncertified washers attempt to blast the chalky residue away using a standard pressure wand. This is a massive mistake that permanently ruins the appearance of your home.

Standard house washing detergents do not break down oxidation. If someone hits oxidized vinyl with high pressure, it will simply blast uneven wand marks directly into the chalk layer. This leaves your home covered in permanent, unsightly zebra stripes. We avoid these amateur mistakes entirely by keeping high pressure far away from your delicate siding.

Our Advanced Oxidation Removal Methodology

To deliver a flawless restoration, we utilize specialized chemical treatments that are specifically designed to neutralize UV damage. We apply these professional-grade restorers using a gentle soft wash system, completely avoiding the use of destructive brute force.

Once the chemical has safely broken down the chalky film, our oxidation removal method often requires gentle, hands-on agitation with soft bristle brushes to lift the dead material evenly. Finally, we utilize a high-volume, low-pressure rinse to flush the residue away, revealing the vibrant color hidden underneath.

Surfaces We Safely Restore

Different materials degrade at different rates and require specialized chemical blends. Our oxidation removal crew is expertly trained to adjust our detergents to match your specific structural needs. We safely and thoroughly restore:

• Vinyl Siding: We eliminate the white, chalky powder from faded vinyl, restoring the original luster while strictly adhering to the cleaning guidelines set by the Vinyl Siding Institute.
• Metal Roofing and Awnings: We safely wash away severe oxidation from painted and corrugated metal roofs, preventing further degradation of the factory finish.
• Garage Doors: We gently extract dead paint and UV chalk from metal garage doors, instantly boosting your property’s curb appeal.
• Exterior Gutters: We remove the dull, faded film from the outside of your aluminum drainage channels to make them look brand new again.

Setting Expectations for Faded Paint

While our professional equipment safely strips away the chalky surface residue, we require clear communication regarding the health of the material underneath the oxidation.

Our standard oxidation removal process removes the dead, powdery layer to reveal the existing paint or vinyl underneath. If your siding has been baking in the sun for twenty years, the true color underneath the chalk may still be permanently sun-faded. We can safely remove the messy white powder so it stops transferring onto your clothes, but we cannot magically replace color pigment that the sun has completely burned away.

Combine Services for a Total Property Transformation

A beautifully restored exterior will instantly highlight how dirty the rest of your property is. To achieve a complete makeover, we highly recommend pairing your oxidation removal with our other specialized services.

While we have our equipment set up for oxidation removal, we can perform a dedicated Concrete Cleaning to safely flush away the heavy dirt, red clay, and oil stains from your driveway and sidewalks.

We also offer comprehensive Window Cleaning to safely dissolve the sticky pollen and hard water spots from your exterior glass, providing a flawless, streak-free shine.

How We Protect Your Landscaping

We treat your home and garden with the utmost respect. Before we begin applying our restoration chemicals, our crew conducts a thorough site walk-through to prep the work zone.

The chemicals required to break down oxidation can be tough on dry plants. To ensure complete safety, we heavily pre-water all the grass and landscaping bordering your home. We maintain a continuous watering process throughout the entire service, ensuring your delicate plants stay perfectly healthy and vibrant while we wash away the heavy chalk.

Common Questions About Oxidation Removal

How do I know if I need oxidation removal or a standard house wash?

The test is incredibly simple. Run your bare hand firmly across your dry siding or garage door. If your hand comes away covered in a powdery, chalky residue, you have oxidation. A standard house wash will only remove the dirt and algae resting on top of that chalk.

How long will the results last?

Because oxidation is caused by continuous UV exposure, it is an ongoing battle in Texas. Once we perform a full restoration, you can typically expect the surface to remain chalk-free for several years, depending on how much direct, unshaded sunlight the material receives daily.

Can you remove the chalk from my painted wooden deck?

Oxidation treatments are specifically formulated for vinyl, aluminum, and metal surfaces. If a painted wooden deck is turning chalky and faded, the paint itself is actively failing and peeling. That surface will require traditional paint stripping or sanding before a new coat can be applied.
