Then you need to lightly scrub your patio so the paste covers it entirely.

After buffing off any dirt or stains, simply wash it off by pouring a bucket of water over it or using a hose.

After a little bit of effort the tiles seemed a number of shades lighter, with the porch looking ready for visitors.

They wrote: “The results speak for themselves.”

And shoppers also loved the Pink Stuff paste, with one saying in the comments: “I use pink stuff on my patio.
