**Teacher Comment: **   **I am so happy about my Science fair not just because it is finally over but I think that I did a very good job on it.**  **Out door cleaner **
 * Excellent Science Fair Neeson, great idea! My hypothesis would have been similar to yours I am surprised with your result. Neeson it would have been good if you included the why e.g. why did the chlorine based products work the best? how does this break down dirt/mould? What is the 'Science' behind your findings. Thanks Neeson now I know the best products to buy.**

**__Introduction__ **

**I decided to do this topic because Dad and I are sick and tired of buying out door spray that doesn't work. **

**__Ensuring a fear test__ **

**<span style="font: normal normal normal 32px/normal 'Big Caslon'; letter-spacing: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">1 Done using the same area of wall 2 Area were separated by tape, named to avoid any mixing up 3 Undertaken according to the directions on the container 4 Any water used was changed between tests and cloths changed or thoroughly rinsed **

**<span style="font: normal normal normal 32px/normal 'Big Caslon'; letter-spacing: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">__Hypothesis__ I think that the home made ( I Made ) Will work the best because the chlorine cleans grim off the bottom of a pool so it should work for the wall. **

**<span style="font: normal normal normal 32px/normal 'Big Caslon'; letter-spacing: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">I think that 30 Seconds will be the slowest because it is an out door product and when I saw their ad the man was it quit hard. **

**<span style="font: normal normal normal 32px/normal 'Big Caslon'; letter-spacing: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">I am tying to find which out door cleaner works the best and if it takes as long as they say it does. **

 * __//Introduction//__ **
 * I decided to do this topic because dad and I are sick and tiered of buying out door spray that doesn't work. **

** __ Hypothesis __ **
 * <span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 110%; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;">Do commercial outdoor cleaners really work, and are they more effective than something anyone could make at home using their own ingredients? I think that I can make a cleaner that will work just as well if not better than those my parents buy and save money in the process. **
 * <span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 110%; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;">Method. **
 * <span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 110%; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;">A variety of outdoor cleaners will be tested to see how clean they slime, growth and mould from a wall surface. **
 * <span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 110%; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;">Testing will be done on the following basis: **
 * <span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 110%; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 36pt; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;">1. On the same piece of wall (e.g: alongside but not overlapping each other. **
 * <span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 110%; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 36pt; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;">2. On the same day at the same time **
 * <span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 110%; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-left: 36pt; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;">3. The instructions and timeframes included with the product will be followed exactly **
 * <span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 110%; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;">At the same time this is being done several “home based” cleaners will be tested (based on a variety of research from various media and discussions). These cleaners will be subjected to the same conditions as indicated in 1 – 3 above. **


 * //Good start to Science Fair Neeson, this is a great idea. See me and we will finish your method & I am not sure what you are trying to say about the ad man?// **
