I had mildew on my painted (wood) siding, so I took a small test area and used 1/5 bleach, 4/5 water and a cup of detergent. This worked fine on the dark mildew. Now there are a few areas with a white film that doesn't come off with rinsing, but does come off with wiping. What could this be? And are there suggestions for removal (aside from wiping down the whole area)? Thanks.

hello, I have a bi-level house that has asbestos shingles on the sides and back of the house and the front is cedar shakes. I would like to vinyl side the house and go over the asbestos and remove the cedar shakes. I am a handy guy who is considering doing the job myself after getting some estimates from some contractors. They are alot more than I expected. What do I need to do to get this job done. I understand that siding gets hung not installed and also to leave 1/4 gap on each side of the j channels and corner posts for expansion. If anyone can tell me what to do from start to finish it would be appreciated. Also is this a job that you guys think I can do? I think I can do it , it's just going to take alot more time than if a contractor does it. Thanks for any help
