    My Gran always used either a squirt of stardrops or fairy liquid (must be fairy don't ask me why but the cheaper stuff didn't work) in hot water and use one of those nylon shower scrunchie things or a bit of scrunched up net curtain. Seemed to work a treat.

    I would try AutoGlym Motorcycle Cleaner. Spay it on and attack with a nail brush or similar then rinse off. I use it on all sorts of things!

    Hi try a product called Silkys. You get it in the caravan shops and costs under 3 quid for a decent size tub. Brilliand at removing black marks.

    We don't need to do it perfectly - good enough is exactly that GOOD ENOUGH.

    Hubby recommends Silkys. Far the best for cleaning.
    Good luck x

    I'd go for the Silkys, it's good stuff... especially for those stubborn black marks. It's also good at bringing up white UPVC and plastic patio furniture
