What is it you want performed?
1.What finish is on the siding currently?
2.Do you want the siding merely cleaned because of mold and mildew?
3.Do you want your siding stripped, pH balanced and restained?
4.Is the coating on the cedar a clear, trans, semitrans, semi-solid or solid?
5.Is it a latex coating or oil based coating?
6.Is the siding natural with no finish(Gray dead wood fibers is the look?)
Do not use bleach in any of your chems of choice is your first choice. Do not use heavy pressure to clean your wood or you will have tons of wand marks on it.
Cedar can be pressure washed, but with qualifications. I hate the term pressure because it sends homeowners and manufacturers running, but when you say sofwash people just scratch your head because your using a "Pressure washer" to perform the "Low pressure" restoration.
