Do you have a sheet metal, powder coated fence round your house and is it looking a bit jaded and worse for wear from too much sun. If you want it to look as good as new then give it a good rub down with a piece of old towel,(dont use the wifes best guests towels unless you like the taste of hospital food) and a liberal dose of WD40.
Ive just tried a section of my fence and it come up beautifuly.
Saved myself a fortune on paying a decorator to do it.

Did one of the grids which cover the patio door and yes it came up like new, but waiting to see what it's like once the sun dries the oil off, wonder if it'll go back to how it was?

Wait till you see what a glass of Coca Cola does to an english 2p piece overnight. You'll never drink it again, its like battery acid.

The problem is if you use Coca-Cola to clean your fence your going to attract every wasp from a radius of 100 kilometres.

Tried this before and once it’s dried it’s all pall again…
It was a lot of work for nothing.

Did you use WD40 or Coca Cola and how long did it take to dry?
