How to shift green algae from shed

Hi, I wonder if anyone knows the best way to shift green algae from a wooden shed prior to re-painting with a wax-based preservative. I have seen a product for cleaning decking but it was quite expensive and I am worried about it reacting with the new preserver when I apply it later. I am thinking of trying a wire brush or a mild solution of Jeyes Fluid but have the same concerns about it reacting badly.
Regards, K

    Hav youy got a pressure washer or can you borrow one? Very quick and easy. Plus because it only uses water, it wont cause any problems with the new preservative.
    Eat vegetables and fear no creditors, rather than eat duck and hide.
