Sometimes not possible to take them off. I have used various chem and still did not remove the most stubborn ones

I can get most white stained plastics back to white at the right price. /emoticons/biggrin.png

I just explain to customer then with at i have removed 95% of the dirt but some marks will simply not shift, even with detergents. I personally find that customers are just happy that their fascias look so much better, tiger stripes or not.

On the rare occasion where TFR and a pressure washer doesnt remove the really obvious black marks then i will use a scourer and some pvc cleaner.

 

[Dave B]

Or gallon of petrol and a match

 

[Smurf]

The only white plastic I can't clean properly has been discoloured by the sun u.v damage (gone a yellowish colour) but you will rarely see that if at all thesdays.

I have used scourer pvc cleaner and cilic bang and still black marks...and I am not the one who easilly let them ( marks) stay there and enjoy the sun

Well I'm not going to give all my secrets away now am I chaps /emoticons/biggrin.png

For tigers stripes on fascias etc I tend to use a scrub pad with chems attached to a wfp which normally gets them clean.

Magic sponge all the way, no pressure needed to get rid of those grey areas

I am trying magic sponges..got a couple today and a new clean with green manky sills to do Saturday.

Do you use flash or anything with them?

Use them wet, even better with Virosol on them. They bring the sills that are grey up nice.

I'd use a cheap cloth first if the sills are green and finish off with a magic sponge as it will get wrecked before it gets to work on the stains behind the green.

Just water, you don't need anything else and you don't need to apply pressure either.
