Numerous cleaning solutions flooded in, but there was one product that was raved about by many -
One user said: 'A product called 'Wet and Forget'. Literally spray it on and in a day or two it's like new! It can be used on any material. Works on wood and composite decking.'
A second claimed: 'Wet and Forget is game-changing! Our fences got green, we mixed up some Wet and Forget with the appropriate amount of water, and it was literally all gone in one hour. A container lasts ages.'
Someone else wrote: 'Wet and Forget, but needs to be above five degrees and no chance of rain.'
Meanwhile, a fourth shared: 'Wet and Forget is amazing, my fences were completely green. It removed all of it just by spraying it. You'll need to dilute it with water and use a spray bottle. It also cleans your patio.'
