Title: Spiders sh*t?
Post by: Big Dave @ CWC on October 02, 2008, 11:35:37 pm
We all know what a nuscience spiders are for leaving their mess all over the frames n sills, when caught soon enough it comes off pretty easy with the wfp, but if caught late the top half cleans off but sometimes leaves a lighter brown mark which just will not come off, even if you try to scratch off with your finger nails(urgh) :o

 i know its suppose to be acidic but is there any products you guys n gals have used that cleans it off as good as new? 

have a couple of nice properties that are starting to show these marks more n more on the white frames n sills and am getting worried the custies may think my standards are slipping..........

what advice do you have?

Dave ???

i have a damp cloth with upvc cleaner on it... it stinks the van for a while... but sometimes after the rinse... ( not before or it will contaminate the brush)... i will just wipe it over once, and off it comes.

gary.

Strongest I got is upvc solvent, and even though it'll shift most marks/stains it don't shift baked on spiders juice :P

put a bit of glass gleam 3 or 4 in the water. if it's 1st floor get up and use a sponge (not a fingernail). wfp are not the bees knees. nothing beats the old fashioned way.

I've used upvc solvent cleaner and a white scourer and that won't shift it, maybe the spiders are hard round here :o

Treat your custy's who also hate spiders (at a price)
it's made from extracts of Cloves,(Clove Oil) Clover Leafs and Chestnuts.....either way, the little darlings hate it.
