Milky lines?
« on: January 05, 2013, 06:27:22 pm »
Started doing a new pub yesterday but some of the windows dried with white spotty lines at top! Could this be something to do with powdery paint or something else. My tds is 00.

Old paint will be the problem. Might not be a job for wfp.

if it keeps happening just dont touch top of frame.

next time just scrub the top alot and rinse more and see if still happens, if not follow the above

I find a longer rinse below the top frame does the job.

I do a few of these painted, upvc and metal ones. I still wfp and just give them a good rub with brush and rinse more soon stops, well till next time, but after several times its not as bad

you require a lote more rincing for these i also spray with virosol or g101 or simular

takes off anything thats loose and then it's not a problem

Yeah me too.

re the op
As it's the 1st time cleaning they will most probably bed themselves in and come up good after a couple of cleans. Or hopefully next time if you are rinsing enough.

I had one before Christmas but it was upvc,

Like a big milk bath just used lots and lots and lots of water and rinsed lots they came up superb. Not sure what they will be like on next clean though.

Come across this a lot in the past on paint and upvc. Just keep scrubbing and rinsing. They'll come good.  :)
