 Hi Darren, i also pretreat F/S/G or connys  with a mix of virosol  & water, before scrubbing & rinsing with WFP, cleans up a lot
 better & quicker.

How long do you guys leave the giro sol on for? Also what strength do you dilute it to? Cheers

I just put a good couple of glugs in a 5 litre sprayer and top up with water. Probably 20 parts water to 1 part Virosol at a guess. I spray up 2 or 3 panels at a time and work around. Usually leave on for a couple of minutes but that depends if the sun is shining or not. If Sun is shining then don't leave on as long. Dead easy.

Thanks guys.  Isn't virosol solvent based though?  Have you had any issues with it specially if it dries too quick on a hot summer day.

Nope, no problems with Virosol. In fact I used to use Ubik and switched to Virosol for this exact reason.
