Can Oxidation Be Removed Without Damaging Siding?

Yes—and it’s important that it’s done the right way.

What You Shouldn’t Do:

– Don’t use high pressure—it will strip or scar the siding

– Don’t scrub with abrasive brushes—it can create permanent damage

– Don’t ignore it—oxidation only gets worse over time

The Right Way to Remove Oxidation:

A safe oxidation removal requires:

– The right chemical (non-acidic but powerful enough to break oxidation bonds)

– Gentle agitation (with a soft brush or pad)

– Proper dwell time

– Thorough rinsing with controlled pressure

This is not a DIY job.

It takes the right tools and experience to avoid streaking or color loss.
