One of the things we love about unpainted aluminum is the ability to get at the grime with a high pressure power washer. It is amazing how fast one these devices will remove dirt, bird poop, and other unpleasantness.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You need to stay off the Lexan (hatch plastic) but otherwise the more pressure the better. With Treadmaster or paint you need to use a lower pressure.<\/p>\n

Speaking of clean, Graham Young of Indi-Clean (www.indiclean.com) brought our covers and awnings back today.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
They have been run through a special cleaning process used with sails and then Scotchguarded. They look wonderful, and the Scotchguard should help with stains, repelling water, and, we are told, offers some UV protection.<\/p>\n
As previously mentioned Graham took away our salon cushions for a wash. The Ultrasuede was in good condition considering, but we thought a bit of a freshen up might help. They look almost new now, and this after a lot of use.\u00a0All in all, our five year old Wind Horse<\/em> is definitely not showing her age.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
