removing moss/green cack from paint etc
« on: 05 April 2010, 20:53 »
i need some help to remove some green moss type stuff growing in hidden crevices and on the window seals in my rat.. I could use  a tooth brush (although the misses goes mad when it's her's) when washing but I'm sure there must be something better to clean this cack out (I had the car parked at the side of a mates house last month and I'm guessing it's due to wetness and no fresh air?)
anyone know of something to remove this without damaging the rubber/paint

spray with apc and then jet wash from a distance moving constantly but concentrate the jet into these areas to remove it all. ive had many a car like this and use this procedure to great effect :wink:
