Let me add that I have run into this on several occassions ( but not due to fault of my own). Trying to save homeowner expense of repaint there is a POSSIBLE solution.
Remedy......
With close range tip of xjet ( some call it low flow) spray liquid carnuba wax over the structure. 10 oz. to 5 gal jug.
It acts as a mask over the oxidation. Gives the finish a sheen appearance such the product "Restora" for vinyl shutters.
It is only a temporary quick fix as weather and time will cause it to wear off eventually. No need to rinse it, but makes sure there will be no rain in the forecast for a day or so.
again, only a temporary fix, NOT permanant solution. It will save a little time and alot of money ( should you consider repaint as a fix).
The canuba wax only cost' about $15.00 a gallon and a gallon would be enough to cover about 3, 2500 s.f. 2 stories.
Hope this helps.
