Title: Caravan cleaning
Post by: Ian Rochester on December 03, 2008, 08:14:09 pm
We've recently got a reasonable sized contract cleaning static caravans, they want the insides done including carpets and upholstery and also the outsides.

Did our first lot a couple of weeks ago and though they went well, I'm not happy with the external cleans, there are black run marks below the windows that we really struggled to get off. 

Can anyone recommend a good product for getting rid of these runs, they look like they come from the rubber sealer around the windows.  We've tried a few different products with limited success.

Cheers

Yep, and Champion, and hard surface cleaner, they all take some of it off but it takes a lot of work to get it to off. 

Apparently the last cleaners had some product that got it off in no time, however I think that was the only thing the site was happy with about them, hence us coming to take over.

It's a contract for roughly 10 caravans a week to be fully cleaned so I want to get it right.
