The pic may be enlarged but not as large as the roof in real life thou, ??? I would be charging around £75 for that and would certainly get the grooves clean

Thats not how I see it at all.  The black bits are the rubber pieces that cushion the roof supports from the roof panels.

Looks like a good job to me.  I'm always amazed at how you wfp boys can do these con roofs with so little pressure, especially when you must be standing away from the roof by a little distance. ???

I find it much quicker to wfp the roof when i'm using a ladder. But tfr does make the job so much easier. Just like a hot knife through butter.

Mark, how do you apply the tfr?  Have it in a bucket neat and let it dilute as you dip the brush in it?

No i bought one of those hozelock pump action crop sprayer or weed killer things from b&q. It cost £20. I dilute it at 20/1 and leave for 10 minutes or so.
A garden broom and an outside hose pipe could do the job just as good on a polycarbonate roof.
After the tfr is applied and left a little while, it just melts away with a sweep of the brush and water.

?So ... you spray the tfr mix on with the sprayer and then ten minutes later use wfp with pure water to scrub off?
It's a game of three halves!

wfp on its own for cleaning any upvc , does not work in  my opinion , the only way i find is a cleaning solutions like tfr  or something simlair  which breaks down the green stuff and muck
