Green stuff. (not the brakes)

Gambit · 16th July 2009, 12:30 PM

How do I get rid of the green mould on the bottom, so that it wont come back again?

ps. Yes I know the pipes need a clean.

I've never noticed that on my car Gambit. My guess would be stuff from the trees etc collecting there. Simple solution, don't park your car outside

Have you tried cleaning it at all yet?

If not i'd advise some sort of watered down bleach solution.

Yep cleaned it last year and it's sprouted again.

Get a load of those pipes, they look like they are going to crumble.
Think I will have to get the sand paper and Hammerite out at the weekend.

I'd clean all the green gunk off and then put some water repelling sealant on it.

I've got a spare aircon cooler if you want it.

Thanks for the offer Matt, but the air con works fine and the pipes just need a sanding and a lick of paint. I don't want to take it off you just so I have a spare, better it goes to someone who needs it.

The rust always shows up worse with the flash on!

I'm not worried about the pipes, I just want to get rid of the mould once and for all before I put the mesh in.

Wd40? Some wax?

Gambit · 10th August 2009, 08:56 PM

I just brushed it and it blew away.
