How to Clean Concrete with Vinegar

This is a video geared towards homeowners and DIY'ers, not the wider professional community that pressure wash homes. The methods and results here should therefore be assessed under that context. Cleaning concrete is apart of homeownership. Whether it's your back patio area, driveway, front porch, or other exterior area, you are most likely going to have to clean concrete at some point during your ownership of a home. In this video I give you an outline of how I have cleaned my concrete in the past using readily available household cleaning products - specifically, regular dish soap and distilled vinegar. I use (and have chosen to highlight) these products because they are readily available in every store in America, and most likely occupy every home at the time of this recording (whether you're interested in cleaning concrete or not). So in terms of accessibility you can't really compete with dish soap and vinegar. Another aspect that I appreciate is that neither product is dangerous or toxic to the end user. Distilled vinegar (5%) is considered as food-grade and is consumed accordingly - unless you despise the smell and would like a mask to dodge it, then you don't need to worry about PPE. I hardly need to explain why dish soap falls under the same low-risk category. In addition to the low-risk nature of these products is the minimal environmental impact that they pose. Vinegar (anything 5% or under) is simply a natural product created from fermentation. It does work as a solid pesticide, so you have to be a tad careful around plants you care about, but beyond this there really is no long-term effects to soil, wildlife, or ground water from introducing it. The same of course cannot be said for alternatives like bleach or sodium hypo. However, these methods require graft. So yes, it takes more time because you will be scrubbing the concrete with a brush. I don't consider that a problem for me vs. pouring bleach into the ground. You will have to evaluate that choice for yourself though. In any event all the best. #pressurewashing #concrete
