"Hi, I'm Tim Gipson. I'm going to talk to you about how to get stains off of vinyl siding. Now, in most cases, what you want to use, you can use any kind of stain or mild detergents, such as dishwashing liquid, and if you're getting stains off, you can use just a hose and a bucket, with a solution, but better yet, a pressure washer system would work much better for you, and one thing that is good to have, is just any kind of a standard bleach.
