This structure is made of some type of plastic/resin or fiberglass. The problem is that it has not been cleaned since construction (13 years) and the white silicone caulk is black and being carried down the panels. I need to clean the caulk - as well as the panels.
Here's what I've tried on the panels: Simple Green, full strength, Krud Kutter and an industrial non-butyl cleaner supplied by the property manager. All were applied with a car-wash brush and rinsed without pressure. The streaks were reduced, but shadows remained. I also tried a Magic Eraser (in a small, inconspicuous area) and it did a fair job of removing the shadows.
On the caulk, I used varying %'s of chlorine - including 12.5%. It lightened the caulk to gray. Even with scrubbing, I could not get it white.
I spoke with Mike at Eacochem and he's sending me a care package.
