I washed a house for a friend. I didn’t take any pre-pics because of that.
But after rinsing I noticed an orange discoloration around some of the windows.
I’m pretty sure it wasn’t there beforehand.
I re-hit it with my house wash to no effect.
The window wrap appears to be vinyl. If you look closely at the orange, in some spots it almost looks like they had a film on the frame at one point.
Hand scrubbing lightened it but did not remove it.
I haven’t tried any other chems yet.
Thoughts?
(Also, the spots on the one window is from their tinting film on the inside of the house.)
It should be gone in a couple of hours or for sure when the sun hits it. See it often in our area freaks you out the first time you encounter it though. I’ve never had any issues with it, eventually dries back to white again.
I just had this happen to me a couple days ago. I thought maybe it was from a pest control spray. Stronger SH from a pump sprayer didn’t touch it. I hit it with OX and it disappeared instantly. Upon searching for this, I saw @Innocentbystander had mentioned that it was from a batch of vinyl that didn’t get UV protected in the late 90’s. The house I did was built in 1994. Just FYI. It was a slightly scary moment since I had never come across it before. Lesson learned. Pucker factor 5.
great, no more holding your breath.
