cleaning ceder shingles with a power brush, Help!

[tom ginas]

good morning
does anyone know if there is a good quality brush (rotating or reciprocating) that i can attach to a power washer to help clean white ceder shingles before i restain them. also if there are brushes like this is there a limit on the power of the washer that i use. i have to clean the whole house with a bit of bleach and soap to get rid of mold , dirt, ect.and i dont want to do this by hand.im looking for a brush that has a medium stiffness to it, i think.also any other information that you send along would be fine
thanks
tom g.

Yes they make rotating and reciprocating brushes but do not think you'll be pleased with them,worth a try tho.Call Mark at easy clean systems and talk to him about the brushes and listen to the advise as to buy or not buy for that job.

I would not do this job like that.

We're in the process of restoring approx 28K sq ft of cedar shakes right now...no need for a brush. Proper chemicals will remove whatever you're taking off with low pressure thorough rinsing.

Listen to Celeste, use HD80 for a stripper if previous stain is applied then follow up with a neutrilizer for brightening, then choose your stain or sealer.
