[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 1059292, member: 175144"] As there is no house DIY thread I've been roped in by the neighbour (actually plied with alcohol for the past month with promise of more) to sort out the windows for the winter. They are an older style UPVC frame with double glazing and some of the seals have gone hard with the algae that has been breeding over the years, but these can be cleaned with solvent and rubber solution to get them back into order. The main issue is the look of the frames themselves where the previous owner fitted some cellophane over the double glazing with brown parcel tape and nothing I have wants to remove the residue even though the tape itself has been pulled off. So, what solvent or technique could get rid of the stuff ? Thanks in advance.[ATTACH=full]119907[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
