Here are some pics of a current anodized aluminum restoration project that we are doing here in Southern California.
This framing does appear to have some kind of clearcoat or lacquer finish that needs stripping before it can be restored via safe restore and sealed with ART.

Heavy build-up of hard-water around this frame. This area got the worst of it…

Another pic of the frame with what looks like the lacquer peeling up after the hard-water was removed from the glass with safe restore.

This part of the frame may not be anodized aluminum, but something similar. The surface texture was much more scratchy or rough…

This is a pic of some of the “pitting” that apparently has happened over the years to this frame…

Thanks guys

Here we are at the Corporate Office of Service Champions in Yorba Linda. They are the region’s leader in the HVAC industry. However, when they want they wanted their hard-water removed on their windows for the annual meeting with the “who’s who,” they called KC Power Clean.

Check out some of the pics of this successful hard-water restoration project.

Below is a picture of one set of windows that had silicate deposits built up from the irrigation system that kept hitting these windows.

These windows were neglected for over a year, but it wasn’t too late to be restored. Even though this hard-water looks really bad, it actually came off with ease with our restoration chemicals. But don’t try this yourself or you will end up injuring yourself by not utilizing the proper personal protection equipment, or you may end up damaging the glass. This is not a window cleaning job for the faint of heart!

Check out the after shot!

Matt’s look describes how he feels to have completed this job. It was good day in the sun!
The good people at Service Champions were very please to see this glass restored like new…

Turn down your volume for these videos because they are Loud! The pressure washing machine is running loud and pumping out some serious water on this backyard cement patio. This yard has not been professionally washed in 9 years, and it sure showed. But it wasn’t nothing that our turbo nozzle couldn’t take care of.

Below is a video of Matt doing the “heavy lifting” by cleaning the surface with a turbo nozzle. This nozzle rotates a couple thousand rotations per minute at very high force to wash away the dirt.

The advantages of the turbo nozzle is that it utilizes the direct pressure from a 0 degree nozzle but combines it with extremely fast rotational coverage. This allows a greater area of surface to be washed with more ease, while doing it better than a fan-spray nozzle could do.

When you hire a professional pressure washing contractor, ask them if they have a turbo nozzle that they utilize to clean your driveway and cement walkways.

But it is important that they also have a fan spray nozzle because the fan spray have much better rinsing capabilities. This leaves your yard with a clean feel because the puddled-up water will be rinsed away. Without this finishing touch, you would be left with a yard that is puddled with dirty water that is already beginning to build up the next layer of caked-on dirt.

Here is a video of Matt rinsing the yard with a fan-spray nozzle. Notice how direct pressure is not applied to the concrete because it is already cleaned with a rotational nozzle. He is just rinsing the surface clean.

Call Kris at 714-342-5326 if you have any pressure washing questions before your next service.

If you have a glass fence, you must know how hard it is to keep it clean. These fences take the abuse of a hot sun all day long, and it seems like a haven for bugs to die on. If you don’t want to spend all weekend scrubbing down those dirty bug markings on that fence, then give us a call at 714-342-5326.

In this particular video, my good friend Matt McQueen is featured as the comedian that he is as he describes our technique for efficiently removing these nasty bug marks on your beautiful “deck-glass.”

Besides, what’s the point of having a great view if the glass is going to be dirty. This particular backyard have about 120 linear feet of deck glass, and we suggested a very affordable maintenance schedule to our clients that they gladly accepted. Now they can enjoy their backyard view without being perturbed by the idea of having to always wash their fence.

Thanks for checking out our site, and we at KC Power Clean hope to hear from You!

Window cleaning is such a great job. We get to travel around and meet plenty of nice people and we get to do something that we take a lot of pride in, but we also get to spend an occasional day at the beach. It sure makes work a little easier to enjoy when you are looking out at the Pacific Ocean!

These windows were sure dirty though. The sand was caked on the glass, but it wasn’t nothing that a good-scrub couldn’t take care of. This particular home, like many others in Huntington Beach, was three-stories high, and featured extremely skinny walkways around the house. This is a window cleaners nightmare, but we enjoy a good challenge and were happy to tackle the job at hand.

Below is a video taken on the job of our beloved Matt McQueen with the beautiful Pacific Ocean in the background. Check out his squeegee skills.

Today, we had the opportunity to clean some windows in Corona Del Mar. It was a beautiful home, but there was only one problem. They had dirty windows and dirty skylights. This skylight had never been cleaned because the home has a very expensive slate roof. These roofs can not be walked on because slate is a very brittle stone that does not support much pressure or weight.

Therefore, we asked the friendly neighbors if we could use their roof to access the exterior skylight of their neighbor.

Here is a video filmed by my operations manager, Matt McQueen. “Starring” in this quick tutorial (which is filmed on my phone) is Kris Cook cleaning the exterior skylights with a water-fed-pole and pure-water. This process ensure that the glass will be scrubbed clean and dry spot-free due to the deionized water (aka pure-water).

Thanks for watching our video.

Be sure to call KC Power Clean for even the difficult tasks like your hard-to-reach windows and skylights. We always enjoy a new window washing task!

Please excuse our poor quality video. I’m about to invest into a real recorder.

The first video is of the “KC Power Mobile” which carries our basic window cleaning supplies. Stripwashers, squeegees, rubbers, chemicals, towels, etc. etc. etc.

The back seats were taken out a long time ago to make room for more stuff, but you know how quickly one finds a way to fill up that extra space.

That brought about the addition of our second trailer, which I call “The Black Knight”. Yeah it’s dumb, but I love this trailer.

It has our pure-water window cleaning stuff, di tanks, and pressure washing supplies and gear. It’s a 5′x8′ and worth every dime.

It’s my ambition to add a ladder rack to the trailer and to have a local welder fab me a better tailgate, a sweet trailer sign, and a system to hold two di tanks.

Thanks for watching.
