Ok let's clear the air once and for all.These things are solid glass Previous chap spoke about tree sap so if there's any harder deposits and you want to give it a little wash down with some fairy liquid or flash or something a little stronger etc given that they are extremely rigid glass surely many have done this ?.Has anyone ever actually heard of solar panels breaking down after cleaning them with any solution.

Use what you want in them you will probably get away with it ,but just be aware you could find yourself with a very expensive bill if it goes pair shaped
Fairy liquid isn’t going to break down a solar panel, you have no worries there.Splash, I’ve also thought about softwashing them, and then rinsing off with pure, but i think hypo is a bit too risky. Shame, as that would make cleaning them a doddle.
