Does anyone know how to clean brick? Or any products to use???
Outside my house I have a dirty waterline from when it flooded a while back and I wanted to clean it. Any Help??

Yep - that would have been my answer too. Definately use bleach water though...it will kill the mold that will grow.

Power washers will clean the brick but be careful that you are not damaging the outer surface of the brick. Using anything that will damage the surface of the brick, like a sandblaster or even a power washer with too much pressure could lead to even bigger problems by allowing moisture to penetrate the now damaged brick.
Here's a link with some cleaning ideas:

I think a pressure washer may be too much.

I rented a pressure washer for about $75 for 24 hours. It worked so well that I cleaned the concrete patio and a neighbor's driveway too. Make sure you get one that will give 2500psi.

Try using a power washer, they are good for decks siding and brick. Should do the trick for you. Good luck. You can rent them if you don't own one.

they sell a cleaner for bricks that contains muratic acid which works great you spray it on and rinse it off.

try a power washer... if it's a small area, you can use a scrub brush and a little bleach water.
