Take a look on Matt Batemans site and look at the conservatory roof before and after pic he has on there.

Someone did that clean using Deepclean TFR.

You can get it from an online caravan shop, but can't remember which one.

That deepclean is a bit expensive, I buy 25 ltr tfr drum from local carparts shop
£25 . dilute 100 to 1, it lasts for ages, apply with soft brush on an unger pole and rinse off with a hose.

G101 is brilliant! You can get it in 25L pots or 205L if you're that enthusiastic, and it's much cheaper that way.
