Getting rid of limescale on a window
« on: July 14, 2009, 10:07:31 pm »
Did a custys windows today with my trad kit. Its a french door (just one and the bottom quater of the door) that has really bad limescale on it. It wouldn't budge at all.

What can I use to shift it ?

I've got the Titan MDR formula B in my van with nylon scrubbing pads.
Reaching parts traditional window cleaners can not reach.

I use titans mineral spot remover (the white one) with the white scrubbing pads.

Best advice I ever got on here for this was to use distilled vinegar, it worked a treat. 20p at Tesco's.
