i ind them extremly difficult and iv tried most brushes but you cant get into all the grooves properly.

the best way if there pvc is a pressure washer on low but its a pain to get out and set up for 5 min.

i think with a brush you do a good job but without get every little bit of dirt out.

got to agree there!! they look ok from the ground, but there always seems to be a trace of dirt in the seams.

I fitted an alloy wheel cleaning brush to the end of an old pole and cable tied the end of the pole hose to it, comes up great.
You can get into all of the curved shapes etc with it.
