Hi there
Am doing a few con roofs over the next few days and using tfr for the first time.
Is there a particular type to get - my supplier mentioned that the ones he has (evans and staples) are both high ph and perhaps I should be looking for a neutral one?
Method wise do you just spray on, leave and then pole off?
Cheers chaps

Go for the non-caustic TFR.
Spray on with a hand sprayer leave for 5-10 mins
then rinse off.
If you leave it on any longer I have found it starts to leave
streak marks.

Yep, definately the non caustic. Dont buy anything else.
The only diferent thing I do is rather than rinse it off I use an old wfp brush, connect it to the customers tap and scrub the roof and finials, capping etc.
I always go straight to the roof as soon as I get to the house and spray the roof the go off and clean the windows on the house to give the TFR a chance to work but dont bother cleaning the windows above the conservatory until after the con roof is finished.
Gotta go as my sugarpuffs are geting soggy.......... ;D

And I assume the tfr can be used on all parts of the conservatory?

Yes, but I just tend to spray it on the polycarbonate roof and all of the white surround on the roof. I dont bother on the sides of the conservatory because a bit of elbow grease is normally enough. I dont spray it on glass roofs just in case it does have bad effect on the glass ???, anyway tap water and then rinsed with DI water seems to do ok.
I will put a thread up to see if TFR is okay on glass roofs
