Nice conny clean in the rain

[Jake]

I'll take a butchers

 

[Jake]

Ah yes I know the ones now I've seen them! Used to use one with the Brillo pad strip across one side, useless for general window cleaning, but I reckon great for conny roofs and those hard dots!

Nice job

 

[Jake]

Ha ha cheap!!

You confused a porcupine with an alligator!

:rofl:

Had those bugs earlier too, I scraped them all off with a scraper, hopefully won't be there again next time as took a while! How about black spots on uPVC, I can scratch them off but don't want to scratch it up. But being eco, I'd rather use elbow grease than chems if there is something for it? All I can think of it fine sandpaper

nah magic sponges from tuffers online...that well known wcf shop...:rofl:

ta tuffers there grrrrrrrreat..../emoticons/biggrin.png

spider :turd: is a pain....and millions of little spiders around here this year...

 

[MrBump]

There are millions of spiders around this year right! It's like arachnaphobia, that film scared the bajeezers out if me when I was little!

I bought some flash magic sponges and they don't do anything for me. Are you meant to use them dry? That might be what I'm doing wrong.

 

[cheapncheerful]

no just wet...

strong survivors them little spiders turn your back and there off up the frame again..

 

[MrBump]

Dang namit I can't even.use a magic sponge properly, I have no hope /emoticons/wink.png I know what you mean about them spiders, I cleaned a front porch yesterday where the owner had put a line of old conkers on the sill, presumably to 'scare' away spiders - as I moved one a huge spider ran out from behind it lol, then about ten more came out. I wouldn't mind but after you've cleaned them they come back out of hiding make your frames look dirty

 

[Poles Apart]

Would that solution loosen those little yellow things you get on glass little sticky yellow specs. Pole never seems to get the off but finger nail does easy. Think it could be bugs poo got a massive roof I do every two weeks covered in them never seem to get it all off real pain would love something to loosen it!

Get some Oil Flow and put it on your brush

Do you stand on a ladder when you do these roofs?

Did this conny this morning and used a new chemical - makro own brand cleaning solution, £6 for two 5l tubs,
Worked really well, sprayed it on then wfp'd it, used the pressure Asher for the 'crown' part as wellView attachment 7329

[Shiny Dan]

Good price for that work, I'm too cheap would've done the job for £100 myself.

 

[Trev81]

My latest chemical mix of Ubik2000 & fairy liquid gel works a treat on Upvc, did this conservatory the other day using it

Talking of spiders look what I came across on Monday and yes I did proper :turd::turd::turd::turd: myself I looked it up and I think it's one off those false widow buggers?View attachment 4964

 

[Dave B]

It may be a false widow but my mate got bit by one of them recently and his whole arm swole up and had a 8 inch long red hot patch on his a around the bite that he had to keep measuring in case it grew
