JOS Cleaning is a patented cleaning process which we actively promote the use of because it is chemical free, gentle, efficient and causes no damage to the substrates surface.
The JOS technique works with a mixture of
water (up to 10 gallons per hour), low air pressure and fine
inert safe abrasive powder. Together these form a swirling
vortex, which when fired onto the contaminated surface, removes
the the unwanted elements such as graffiti, certain
types of paints, carbon deposits, stubborn dirt and scale
from a wide variety of materials from brick to stone, metals,
even wood and plaster
A range of JOS nozzles are available for
most tasks. The standard nozzle will quickly and efficiently
clean most surfaces. A micro nozzle can be used for more detailed
work and for the most intricate work there is a JOS
Piccolo Nozzle. Whichever nozzle is used, the JOS
method produces results far superior to any other cleaning
system.
FM Restoration currently use JOS Cleaning on the following:
Stone & Brick
Concrete Terra cotta Ceramic Tiles & Glass
Copper (removal of oxidation and sulphur deposits) Brass (removal of oxidation and sulphur deposits)
Bronze (removal of oxidation and sulphur deposits)
Aluminum (removal of oxidation and sulphur deposits)
TORC
This is a new nozzle design exhibits a swirling vortex method
from the supplier of JOS. The TORC
allows for varying sized apertures of nozzle and is even more
efficient than the JOS method since it uses
less water in the swirling process. This means a lower consumption
or granulate and the ability to work drier or dry whilst still
maintaining the vortex. Torc nozzles can
be retrofitted to an existing JOS strong
System.
Many significant buildings have been given a new lease of life from cleaning using the JOS/TORC systems. These include:
Buckingham Palace |
|
Harrods |
The Albert Memorial |
|
Royal Mews of Windsor Castle |
St James Palace |
|
Empire Bath Hotel |
Westminster Abbey |
|
Oxford Colleges |
Canterbury Cathedral |
|
Stafford Library |
Salisbury Cathedral |
|
Lincoln Cathedral |
DOFF Cleaning
DOFF is a natural answer to the removal of
oil, grease and bitumen and fully complements the JOS
system by using a combination of heat and pressure which can
remove unwanted surface pollutants without damaging the underlying
surface
