After researching it extensively on the net, I have learned that with stucco, it's the cleaning solution that you want to do the heavy lifting, and for the most part you want the pressure washer to rinse the cleaning solution and dirt off.

The cleaning solutions I have come across all seem to have warnings about possible damage to the stucco, especially stucco that's been painted, and a lot of the videos deal with really badly stained, or algae covered stucco that needs a more aggressive approach.

For you DIYers, any recommendations for a gentle, yet effective cleaning solution to use on painted stucco?

For you non DIYers, I already have the names and numbers of several reputable companies I could call if I wished to, so I'm good there.
Thanks, all.

When we had our home painted by Steve Kling's company, he told us to use pressure washing companies that use Simple Green. So, I would imagine a dilute solution of Simple Green will be OK for a DIY job.
