How do people clean conservatories on here. My method has so far to just use soapy water to get the algae/ dirt off the windows / uPVC or wooden frames and then to rinse off with pure water and wfp. This is effective - but involves scrubbing lots.
Is it possible to use TFR?? - would this make it quicker - does it not damage wood / windows / seals etc? -
cheers,

we use tfr with a 1 part tfr to 10 parts water works a treat but dont leave it on long 5 mins max , i summer only do small sections at a time .

I`ve got different poles,sprayers,extension sprayers,different brushes,separate reels to use customers tap through the wfp,trigger,customised this and that.
However the one i have booked in next and i expect most from now will be done by my wfp pole,vikan brush put on the end for better scrubbing and a bucket of hot soapy water(a tfr type mixed in). Surface will be wetted and then i`ll dip the brush in the bucket and simply scrub away,final rinsing with the pure water. Simple and even easier if the customer is in and provides the hot water though i like to bring my own.
Hardest thing when doing con-roofs is trying to avoid breaking bits of plastic off,pole clamps are great at this,pick them up and put them in your pocket sharpish and this will give you an opportunity to maybe glue/repair without it being noticed,or watch what your bloody doing. Keep some superglue and araldite in the van !

real handy if they have outside tap as u can tfr the conny then use tapwater to rinse off (connect pole directly to tap as great pressure and flow rate) then use pure for final rinse ... much quicker.
