Ive just picked up a custy as she sacked her last window cleaner and one of the reasons was for black smears on her brand new upvc window frames, where can i buy the stuff to get it off.

most cream cleaners will get that off, and it is very cheap, white scouring pad (non scratch) sugar soap is aslo good for this.

your problem is sometimes the black leaks down from rubber seals(gaskits spelt wrong) this is a total ball ache so be warned on that you maybe lucky.

I usually comes down from the fascia or soffit, guttering I think, runs down when it rains leaves behind those weird runs.

How strange! 87 hits on this problem and 87 hits on "shop signs" with the same problem. (88 with this one). Do we have 87 w/c with these exact same provblem? Spooky or what? Seriously, what is to be done about these unsightly
little devils?  8)Syd
