Cleaning radiators

[buildingmycorestrength]

I have not cleaned our radiators in four years. They are mank.

I will get one of those microfibre radiator brushes (unless you have a better idea?) and get started but....how long will it take? I have 16 radiators. .

Use baby wipes!

Bowl of hot soapy water and a cloth. Wring the cloth it well. Use a magic cloth to polish up. You may need to dust behind them first and take of the little grills at the top too.

A proper job? Each radiator half an hour. Why not do 4 a day?

I mean I need to clean right inside and behind the dusty little fuckers. Allergies, dusty smell when the heating comes on, etc.

The outside, yes, babywipes would be great and smell nice, and that will take moments, really. But you don't mean soapy water poured down inside them or babywipes pushed down inside them, do you? Or do you?

They are the sort with wavy metal bits inside that are open at the top to let all the grimness in, BTW.

I either use a feather duster and have the hoover sucking from beneath or I use the hairdryer at the top blowing the dust down and hoover at the bottom at the same time.

Thanks, gamer. My radiators have the metal equivalent of a crusty gusset. .

A metal crusty gusset gives quite the picture.

Kind of steam punk.
