Soft washing egg from brickwork

Has anyone attempted to remove egg from brickwork using a Softwash solution?

I have a customer who’s house was egged by her sons ex. It’s a rendered property and the egg has been there for a couple of weeks.

Do you thing that soft washing will break the egg down sufficiently and what strength mix do you think I would need.

I don’t have any photos of the job at present.

many thanks

crack an egg on some bricks or render and practice till you perfect it.

Good idea, thanks 

Well one problem with that idea is the eggs you test on a brick with will be fresh so easy to move after 2 weeks different story. Tbh they should have had it removed asap and not hoped the rain would do it

I did one a few years back what I was told was egg on wall!!
Wet it all down .
Bio washing powder mixed in to bucket of water.
Dip brush in to bucket then scrubbed on to wall .
Left for 20 mins then gave it a light pressure washing.
Job done.

Egg is a high fat content we have never successfully removed it without getting up a ladder and scrubbing with a brush and soapy agent , most de greasers will work including fairy liquid , it also depends how long it’s been there you can remove the material from the surface but when it’s gone mouldy and soaked into the substrate it’s a bit harder

It is nothing to do with fat it is the egg protein which goes hard and is a job to remove

Degreaser may soften it but it is not actually due to grease

Ideally you would need to research and find something that would break down the protein to remove it

most important thing is to try and soften it buy applying Bio wet clothes on it, probably need a length of wood to hold it in place for 10minutes.
