Title: ecover truckwash
Post by: Carl@Cwc on July 04, 2012, 11:14:35 pm

anyone using the ecover truckwash?
currently using virosol on fascias / conny roofs etc.

however been using ecover washing up liquid on some first cleans sprayed across the brush head on the first pass and have been getting good results.

is in your opinion the ecover truckwash any better on fascias etc etc. than virosol

Just ordered some from gardiners, at my parents, will pick up tomorrow.

Doing connie roof not that bad though.

Intrested to see how much you use 5% so hopefully more economical than virosol as ecover truckwash twice the price.

Let you know.

Is this stuff meant for sticking in your pressure washer and spraying like snow foam.

Got some magifoam I use on the van when I clean it.

Hi Carl used my ecover truck wash today from gardiners.

Used two egg cup fulls in a 2 litre hand held spray bottle.

Must say i was pleased; connie roof was just slightly soiled but the finails (little plastic crosses) were quite green.

sprayed truckwash on and let soak a few mins.
Algae come off quite easy; easier than just pure water.

So I am more pleased with the ecover than virosol.

Blue frog; likes virosol, but you need more of it in my experience.

Sorry not to take pics but my phone is old hat.
