Odd but it's disappearing now

I had a bit of a go at the upright edge of the pop top roof of the Puck L this morning as it did look quite grimy and I do need to get back up and clean the algae that's collecting just above the rubber seal, but that's a later date, as I am due out soon for a pint and a pie with my drinking buddy from Rochdale.

I used the cleaner that someone raved about available at Aldi and it was fine although I didn't bother with accurate measuring, just guessing and pouring for that little area. Did the job, rinsed and wiped but noticed that the two front windows acquired a sort of condensation between the laminates. They were on full lock as all the others are on perma vent lock when at home in the drive and they are in sun until about now when I checked and the condensation has gone.

Now I know I commented recently on cleaning, but I do it several times over the year, but this is the first time it has caused this effect.

You will find removing the algae above and in the rubber seal is easier with the seal removed, it is a push fit and usually has a small gap where it joins at the rear of the roof on ours

Thanks, the job is done apart from removing the seals which I didn't know about, but the pop top and the rails, gutters etc are clean now and I will give the walls a wash before we go off to Wareham on Friday for a couple of nights.
