MetaClear – Treatment for Black Staining (Metabolites)

MetaClear is a specialist treatment developed to remove black staining (metabolites) left behind by organic growth on exterior surfaces. While standard softwashing treatments eliminate algae, moss, and biofilm, some surfaces may still retain dark residues. MetaClear is designed specifically to target and break down these remaining stains.

What Are Metabolites?

Metabolites are by-products produced by microorganisms such as algae and bacteria. These residues often appear as:

Black streaks on render
Dark staining on external walls
Persistent marks that remain after treatment

Even after the organic growth has been eliminated, these stains can remain visible without additional treatment.

A Targeted Treatment Approach

MetaClear is applied as a high-adhesion gel, allowing it to:

Stay in contact with vertical surfaces
Break down staining effectively
Treat affected areas without excessive runoff

This controlled application makes it particularly suitable for render and other vertical substrates where precision is required.

When to Use MetaClear

MetaClear is typically used:

After initial softwashing treatment
When black staining remains visible
On surfaces affected by long-term biological growth
Where improved finish and appearance are required

It is not a replacement for biocide treatments, but a secondary step where needed.

Safe & Controlled Application

MetaClear is designed to work without damaging the underlying surface when used correctly.

Does not penetrate deeply into substrates
Targets surface-level staining
Applied using controlled methods
Suitable for delicate finishes such as render

This ensures effective stain removal while maintaining surface integrity.

Part of the AlgoClear System

MetaClear is used as part of the wider AlgoClear cleaning process, supporting:

Complete surface restoration
Improved final appearance
Consistent professional results

It complements standard treatments by addressing issues that cannot be resolved by biocide alone.
