Thanks pop will give it a go.

I have today washed the Eriba and when getting up on steps to do the roof I have orange spots which I think us pollen from a tree. I have tried Aldi caravan cleaner and black stuff but it's not budging. Any suggestions on how to remove them?

In a previous post you stated you had Mer polish. This has good clensing properties and a very mild abrasive. Apply with damp microfibre or stockinette and apply mild pressure at first, bit more pressure on the yellow spots if required.

If your polish doesn't remove the stains try the JML magic eraser, I have used them on my plastic trims to remove grime with very good results. Ebay and Amazon also sell them. I have also seen them in wilkinson and Morrison's.

Also I have found this DIY trick on the web using household items, I have never tried it but may be worth a go.

How certain are you that it is pollen?
Has anybody been using an angle grinder nearby recently?
I only ask because I remember a story on similar lines about orange spots on a roof and it turned out that they were tiny rusty flakes thrown up by an angle grinder. As they were hot they had melted themselves onto the surface then rusted!

I think it is pollen as if I rub hard it will fade and nearest the tree is the worse area. It's not terrible I am just really fussy about cleaning vehicles and I want a sparkly roof.

I almost posted it was as if it was insects marks but thought that sounds odd. I do think the bee mention is right as I have had these marks on my washing as well. I will try the mer polish and elbow grease. Many thanks for the help as always good advice.. And the tree has had lots of activity with insects.

I will try the vanishing block as I have one before polishing. Was hoping to BD it but need all the marks off first. How do you all get to reach the centre of roof as ii have a polisher but can't quiet reach. Short of dangling out of upstairs window like Tom Cruise to the roof it a bit mission impossible for a woman with average arms!

In the early days I used to tape my polisher to a broom handle I could tell how I did it when I got my new polisher but would have the H & S executive on my case despite being NEBOSH qualified!

Thanks Agger, I may try the same if your having withdrawals you can always come and demonstrate.

Thank you all for very useful advice. I now have a nice shiney roof. The mer polisht the orange spots off with a little rub and use of fingernail. I have also just finished and sprayed it after a rinse with BD.
