I love how you tested three version before trying it out. Also, your confidence shines throughout this video, I am going to show to my girls as an example.

Thank you for your video! Minimal effort and safe for the environment. Just used a regular garden hose, too. Took about ten minutes to clean our wall!

@gwendolenpechan1955 5 лет назад

This was awesome. I had brick that had greasy smoke marks from a gas grill. The hydrogen peroxide and baking soaa worked like a charm.

Great video. A little constructive criticism in the video production area: when the music came on the volume was really high and I had to pull out my ear buds. 😊

thank you for the feedback, i will be correcting that in future videos.

Another item which can be found at dollar stores is oven cleaner. Buy 5 cans $5. Spray on brick. Wait. Then wash off. I think people would get better and easier result. Depending on situation don't let it drain into gutter no matter what you use.

@MAGAMAN Год назад

Oven cleaner will destroy your brick. Regardless of what you use to clean your brick, the first thing you should do is wet it down. You do not want the cleaning chemicals to get absorbed into the brick.

My only question is how long do you let the mixture sit after scrubbing with outdoor broom?

i only waited like 5 minutes then rinsed it off

Will peroxide/baking soda mixture hurt nearby plants or grass?

@SoniaFigueroaRE 3 года назад

not 100% sure but when I did it there were plants nearby and nothing happened to them.

@765lbsquat Год назад

These bad boys don’t work to remove the efflorescence. You need a bad boy industrial cleaner

@Anna-lc4no Год назад

how do you clean mold inside your fireplace?

@SoniaFigueroaRE Год назад

You may be able to remove mold on bricks with an antifungal cleanser like Foster 40-80, available at home improvement stores, and a stiff brush. Use a long-handled brush to clean hard-to-reach parts of your fireplace. Use a mirror and a flashlight to help you see all parts of the fireplace

@TeddyR_Official 3 года назад

Did you rinse all three before comparing? Looks like the Hydrogen peroxide+baking soda solution was not rinsed yet, it looks so white.

@SoniaFigueroaRE 3 года назад

I used new containers with each solution. The containers were cleaned before use

@krisomarcrispin1035 2 года назад

I think he meant did you rinse the brick?

@MaverickSpinster 6 лет назад

Great Video! I am going to try to use this method to clean brick indoors. Just moved into a 1912 (year build) condo. Any tips?

@SoniaFigueroaRE 4 года назад

HI Pixie, sorry for delayed response i would just say give it a try if you haven't already done. I have to do it every year though so it stays clean.

@NostalgiaPicker 4 года назад

Hello Ma'am, @PollenPixie I am about to clean the brick on my house also. How did this work for you? Thank you for your time.

What about basements walls? How do you rinse them ?

@SoniaFigueroaRE 4 года назад

basements are a whole different animal i'll be posting a video on how i cleaned my basement concrete and then epoxied the floor. Overall you will have to etch it to make the surface smooth. Phosphoric acid works on smooth or rough concrete. I used something else can't recall right now but I'll soon post the video.

@SoniaFigueroaRE 4 года назад

I used Muriatic acid and lots of elbow grease here is the video not sure if this will help but just in case. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-coA1AOw6Kgo.html

@blackceasar2141 6 лет назад

Great tip, with spring around the corner I'm anxious to clean the brick and walkway. I guess I need ask my husband to haul the pressure washer home. Btw, I your sneakers. I have the same color, but Flyknit style.

@woodsofthewoods Год назад

Be careful it doesn't take the color off. Simple green is also good.

@aneedkassim9727 2 года назад

u can do baking soda and vinegar as well

@mickobyobrien2650 2 года назад

Use 🍋 lemon juice its works better.

@jessicaf9720 2 года назад

Lemon juice with the baking soda?

@teqnikool 4 года назад

I don't want to sound like I contradicting your video ... I really like it, but hydrogen peroxide and baking soda are chemicals. They are pretty safe, but not exactly correct to say that you're not using real chemistry, as your results will bear out. Nice job!

@SoniaFigueroaRE 4 года назад

thank you so much sorry for delayed response. You are right they technically are chemicals but as a DIY'er I just felt they weren't as harmful as some other substances you buy at the hardware store.
