Green stuff

I have moss appearing on a lot of my rubber trim, whats the best way to get rid of it.

Hi pardec,

Use an old tooth-brush and Lidl multi-purpose de-greaser - the one in the orange bottle.

Any kitchen anti-bacteria type cleaner will do - but the Lidl stuff stops it coming back for longer.

Cheers,

Thanks, i'll give that a try.

Who's toothbrush to use........ that the big question

Anti bacerial spray works too and don,t use your own toof brush

Don't be tempted to use a wire brush either

Ooooo, that looks like experience speaking! .... what did you do?

We get plenty of moss here in Cornwall due to being damp most of the year, usually starts sprouting around the window rubbers and trim. All I ever do is use my karcher pressure wash which always shifts it, surprising how much crap builds up in the most unlikely places.

once the moss is cleaned off ..
this product works well to protect rubber / vinyl / plastic ..
( e.g. to prevent the black bumpers from fading to grey .. etc .. )
can't imagine moss would want to take to it either ..

Protectants (Gloss Finish) - Armor All UK

it's been around since the 70's ..
as have 'rain-x' .. and 'diesel-aid' ..

Nothing. I just have visions of some over-zealous person scraping away with a wire brush and removing the algae, trim, paint, etc
