What would you think about using this to clean water-blackened cedar beams inside a house? Would there be something safer for inside? Thanks.

I'm using it to remove black spots from an oak table. Spots made by water. Haven't used it yet so I don't know how much it smells/toxicity

What result are you hoping to achieve with the use of the product? I purchased it to clean my shower and it didn't do as good a job as Clean Shower from Arm & Hammer and that costs around $2. Don't get me wrong, each of them required a considerable amount of scrubbing, but Clean Shower produced better results. I used the ROG with bare hands and it did't affect my skin, so I would assume it's safe for your septic system. If you'd like, I can check the container when I get home.

Maybe --- the pressure is certainly high enough --- but it could be a little risky, especially for oil-based stains as these contain particulates which could clog your spray nozzle. I assume that you're looking to stain/seal a deck, or some other outdoor structure, rather than indoor items such as cabinets or furniture. If that's the case (outdoor use), then go ahead and try it, using a fan rather than a cone nozzle, but make sure that after use you immediately cleanse the system thoroughly with mineral spirits and then hot, soapy water, then clear water. I'd go so far as to soak the nozzle in mineral spirits overnight before final cleaning with soap and water. Good luck.

I suppose in theory it would work. I would worry about water getting into the cracks in the floor and developing mold and if you get any water into the walls the insulation will wick in up into the walls and then you could get mold there. I would probably do a lot of research before I tried this but I understand your wanting to use something powerful to clean the floor and this would do that

I haven't done this and wouldn't - Instagone is highly effective because it's also VERY STRONG/CAUSTIC. Unless you can protect all surfaces and yourself, you would not want any of this to splash - and a roller on a popcorn ceiling would surely make a mess. (As a watery liquid on a roller, I also doubt it would make consistent enough contact to uniformly clean the ceiling.)

As far as I know, it is designed only for the removal of cement and roof moss. I experiment a lot with cleaners so who knows. Just be careful.Have you ever tried Simple Green for the shower? Though it doesn;t disinfect and might be limited in it's effectiveness on mold and soap scum, I use it religiously and it has replaced a number of household cleaners for me.

You really need a black light flashlight. You can see it a little with an LED flash light. It works great. I always pull a vacuum, that way all of the moisture will be out of the system

I wouldn't use it on wood. Water makes wood swell and combine that with heat, bad idea. You can damp mop wood and sealed floors, this unit puts out a lot of water. Hope this helps.

I used this to remove a wet look sealer from my indoor slate, and it worked great. The key is to use absorbant towels to remove all of the dissolved goo, while it is still wet, otherwise it turns shiny again when the remover evaporates.

I've used it on ours in the kitchen. It cleans the surface well. I just keep it away from any edges that are loose. Since it uses water/steam, it could get underneath and cause it to bubble up.

It was brilliant re cleaning blackened grout. Don't know about yellowed, but think it's worth a try. Recommend using a sealer after using the cleaner.

Should be OK as long as the dilution is lightly sprayed on then wiped with a soft cloth. Should not be allowed to soak in and warp the wood planking. Consider a few applications until the odor is gone.

If you could find stainless steel brads it wood be perfect. If you use galvanized nails or regular interior nails they will create black streaks in the cedar.

It probably wouldn't hurt to use a wood sealant, even if using the rings indoors, as the wood will start to absorb dirt/oils from your hands. A normal wood sealer should work.

I use my cloth on my shower doors and love it. The hard water mineral build up hasn't come off down near the floor of the shower, but it is better. I am thinking that using something like CLR would be a good thing to start with, and just don't let it build up again. Also, don't get the CLR on the Norwex cloth. The cloth works wonders on stainless steel fixtures and glass.

Absolutely! Thats ALL I have used it with. I did an indoor room & ceiling, 100% water based including primer like Kilz. No problems, easy clean in yard with hose refills, & final flush with Graco storage flush fluid.
