  |
|
|
I have just completed a kitchen and left a very happy client BUT I'm not happy with a window frame that to me spoils the whole job. It's aluminum but has a white plastic covering. That has been covered in the main by silicone. I have tried everything to clear this off but nothing moves it. It just looks mucky and although the client says she is v happy as she can't get it clean I'm not.
Any advice as to how to clean it without damaging the plastic covering please.  |

The silicone eater stuff should be ok with the plastic, but as per normal just do a tester area, I came across something similar this year where someone thought it a good idea to cover the window ledge in clear silicone!
