0 Big Bill 14 Report post Posted July 2, 2006 Maybe a wire brush will work. Good luck on this, I think you'll be wasting your time & his time also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 Crownroyal 14 Report post Posted July 3, 2006 Goof off will dry the oils in the vinyl. In most cases it works best to remove stains but it does leave cleaning marks behind. Make sure you don't use swirling motions or you will see it when you look down the side of the building... Hd-80 and make sure you don't let it dry, and neutralize it…………….. Good luck D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Beth n Rod 1,279 Report post Posted July 3, 2006 When we seal a deck, we keep a bucket of degreaser with a rag in it. Works like a charm if you inspect the siding when you seal and wipe right away. Beth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 mas3372 14 Report post Posted July 3, 2006 How about the stains right around the furnace vetns and stove venst. Anything take these out? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Beth n Rod 1,279 Report post Posted July 3, 2006 What was the product specifically? Knowing this answer, I can better make a suggestion that would be suitable. Otherwise, Using a stripper would do the trick but could damage the installed stain on the deck from exposure in application and washing. Using a small sprayer bottle would allow for more direct application w/o excessive run-off onto the deck floor. Goof-Off will most likely remove it but as CrownRoyal mentioned, it can change the surface appearance on some vinyl's and leave a distinct mark where you have clean in relation to areas where you haven't. I am sure any improvement would be a good one but making the person aware of the potentials here would be prudent. Rod!~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
