CIF Outdoor Multi-Purpose Anti-Stain Scrubbing Cream 450 ml – Pack of 4

Product Information

For many of us, patios and decking is a useful extension of our home living spaces, perfect for relaxing and socialising, particularly during the summer months. During summer, it's where I spend my weekends, whether flipping burgers on my portable grill with good friends (and even better wine) or catching some vitamin D while working outside. You can use it on all stonework – so that includes walls as well as patios – as well as aluminium, which means you can give the car a quick clean at the same time. I would suggest scrubbing any problem areas, though, and reapplication might be necessary if your patio is really bad.

This normally means one that works under pressure using a simple pump, preferably with a high-capacity tank and a separate spray wand. Algon Organic is based on a non-toxic, pet-safe acetic acid that shouldn’t do any serious harm to anything – although it will scorch the leaves of plants on contact.

If you want a patio cleaner that will provide instant results, then this one from Jeyes is brilliant. It doesn’t smell and, as long as nearby shrubs and plants are saturated before and after application, it shouldn’t be harmful. The easy-to-use refill bottle is made with 75% less plastic and by diluting at home means 97% less water is being transported, resulting in 87% fewer trucks on the road. Patience is a virtue and a clean patio is a must-have, and the best part about this wet it and forget it solution is that it will remove mould and lichen from your space. Hobs and hotplates - Easily remove splashes, grease stains and even burnt-on food from gas and electric cookers.

We found it worked quickly on moss and mould and left a really clean look, as well as making it smell nice.

Garden Pots – Keep your garden pots looking their charming selves with some Cif Cream, a damp cloth and a little bit of wiping. We use the patio cleaner as suggested, diluting the formula if stated, on a small area of paving, spare slab or spot of decking. Forgive the slightly unpleasant vinegar smell that hangs around for a day or so after drying, and this one’s a rock-solid cleaner that won’t upset the local critters.You can spray the entire surface with water using a garden hose, then dissolve 75ml of washing soda in a gallon of hot water and scrub with a brush soaked in the solution, re-dipping as required.

As with many other types of cleaning detergents, there are a range of patio cleaners with each suited for slightly different jobs.

It’s certainly easy to use: just clear your patio or decking of any surface dirt, then spray it on with a garden sprayer. The clue is in the name of this one, as it really only works on mould and algae, but it does its job so well and results last for months. In fact, the formula has a pH value that’s just above water although the manufacturers warn that it can be toxic to aquatic life.
