I take it you were washing the roof?
That is a hotly debated subject around here. At one time, Dicor specifically frowned on the practice... It was on the FAQ of their website. They did say that if you really wanted to, that Murphys (IIRC) was OK to use.
But people kept wanting to do it, and Dicor saw a Buisiness opportunity... They now sell roof cleaner, and reccomend frequent roof washing.
Of note here: Dicor doesn't make the roof material. It is made for them by Carlise. Carlise makes it for the commercial building market. On the Carlise website, they state that roof washing is NOT necessary.
I always thought that even though I don't wash it, that it was a harmless activity for those that did... In fact it may even let them find areas that need maintainence while they were doing it...
Well I guess I was wrong. One can actually damage a roof when washing it.
