    Power washer brings them up well - but I really don't see the need to go using all these harsh chemicals on them - as long as they've had a good wash down they'll be fine.

    I did mine with plain old table salt - just wipe on leave for half an hour then rinse well with warm water
    Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones that let in the light

    i tried cleaning some i`d got from freecycle today with the power washer

    unfortunately its left them with a very rough feel plus you get a white film on whatever touches it so i gave up after one.

    the chairs seemed very old with a lot of fine cracks-almost-throughout the coating

    good luck

    oh by the way tried the cillit bang but it didnt work either

    Have you tried painting thick bleach on with a paint brush? This worked like magic on ours which had grey stains on after being left out. Just rinse it off afterwards. Bleach is nasty stuff but I don't feel too bad about this as a little goes a long way
    It doesn't matter if you are a glass half full or half empty sort of person. Keep it topped up! Cheers!
