Help! Anyone know how to clean inside a double radiator?

[docket]

Down the gap I mean. I have just looked and it's really gross. I need to clean them but the gap is too small to get the hoover nozzle into. If you've cleaned yours, how have you done it?!

Thanks

You need one of these, not sure of the English name though...

Is it one of the ones with the zig zaggy bits in it? (Technical terms of course)

I use a thing from Betterware but you could probably find it anywhere else, it's just like a big long dish brush mine are short ones though but they work fab just gather a duster or someting at the bottom because the stuff that comes out is rather minging! PMSL.

Yeah one of those.

oooh, is it maybe just called a feather duster?

why on earth would you bother

its dust and you cant actually see it

or if you really cant live with it hang a towel over it and pulli t through the bottom

Yes to zig zaggy bits and yes to hideous stuff falling out of the bottom, well I can imagine it would as I don't think they have been cleaned for rather a long time . Shall go to Bettaware forthwith thanks ladies!

wet a small mouse or hamster and guide it through the gaps

this

Lol southeastastra......moist rodent

Get a long thin stick and use it to push wet cloth or baby wipes through the zig zag bits. Worked for me!

"why on earth would you bother

quite, Enid

and chopsticks? aren't they are bit short?

I'm afraid dust in places where I can't see it is the least of my worries. I need to be more concerned with the dust I can see, getting around to doing anything about that which I can't is a distant dream!!

garden cane + microfibre cloth

(NB I am a champion domestic slattern but even I have a go at this - the dirty old dust in the middle of a double radiator goes airborne with the heat & recirculates along with all the lovely clean new dust. yummy )

a goat hair radiator brush

Ahem.

FABIO CLEANIO? radiator cleaning

use an old net curtain on one of them wires you thread them though to hang

shove between doouble radiator and whoosh back and forth

you have to glue the top of the net curtain to one end so that it doesn't all scrunch up at the shoving end.

You should wash the nets before you put them up again.

Next time, I will tell you all how to get the muck out of the plughole using cushion covers.

net curtains? what are they then?

choc brownies = tick
goat hair brush = wtf

WW you find them in old ladies houses

well that explains why I don't know about them, but how come you do?
