View Full Version : Algae stains on spray hood
Try Vinagar, it works on most things and should not stain ( try it on your sail cover first, just in case )
Anyone any ideas how to remove green algae stains from a spray hood without removing the colour? I had it valeted which just made the stains look more obvious. I know bleach kills algae stains but it kills the colour too!
This is also major new problem with external domestic/shop awnings due to mild/wet winters.? I am in the trade and recommend " Jeyes Fluid" well diluted but do not know if it works. Also heard that " Patio cleaner" may also work.
Good luck
You could also try Miltons fluid.
Jey's Fluid has devastating effects on things like algae, try it on a small spot first, but it kills anything in my greenhouse. Be warned! the spray hood may stink like a public loo for a time so take your pick!
Thanks very much for al the suggestions
Miltons is just sodium hypochloride with sodium chloride i.e. bleach and salt. Any supermarket bleach is just as pure, far stonger and a lot cheaper.
See my posting today about BioTex it should work on sprayhoods too, I am going to try it on mine. Then treat it with Renovo it should be good.
