How To Remove Grass Stains Off Mower Deck

[iski3d]

Does anyone know how I can remove the grass stains off the front of my mower deck. The nice red paint on my Ferris is turning green. I remember someone here on lawnsite saying something about eagle 1 car cleaner. Does it work? Thanks.

I would perhaps try some rubbing compound, then wax. If you really want to get it all off, that is. I would sort of equate this to wash the tires on your car or truck - on the thread side. It just wouldn't serve much purpose, as within an hour of use afterward, it would be all stained up again. But, I can certainly respect your wanting to take care of your equipment!:blob3:

This buildup is like plaque on your teeth. Take a toothbrush and some crest and start brushing.

Seriously I use super clean and a scrubbrush...

I use Super Clean and a presure washer. Spray it on and wahs it off after about a minute. Be careful it can fade your paint. I've never had any problem with the deck though.

Super Clean is the former "That Purple Stuff" Correct? I used it on the bottom of my mower before I sprayed Slipe Plate on it. Purple stuff worked, Slipe plate...Waste of time!

I can get off 99% of the junk on mine with simple green and a perssure washer.I put a quart of simple green in a 2 gallon sprayer,top off with water,spray it on dry,let it sit for a minute,then I fire up my 3200 pSI/4 GPM powerwasher,it'll peel it right off in no time.

Castrol super clean works great for me also. Spray it all over everthing, scrub and rinse, and it clean. It is the Only thing I have found to take off the black Exhust from my 94 Z28. The tips turn the bottom of my bumper black, and this stuff take it right off.

I use the same stuff on the mowers as I do my truck. Just a good car wash and brush. Rinse with a garden hose.

Get some hood degreaser from your power washer dealer or reasturant supply house. This stuff is a mild acid and works great. Spray on with a pump up sprayer, let set for a couple of minutes, hose off! Gets it ALL baby!!!:blob3:

simple green workd good for me. Dont you listen to paul harvey?

I use a product called "Miracle Clean". I get it at my local chemical supply place. Works for carpet, as a degreaser, stain remover, you name it it will clean it. It even gets the black stains off the side of my white trailer, nothing else would touch it!

Just recently I used a product called Greased Lightening on my Toro deck. This stuff worked excellent. A quart of this stuff costs about $2.98 at Lowes. One thing nice about the product is that it did not remove the shine and did not streak. G'bye simple green.

Go to your local Flea Market and get some Purple Power. Around here it sells for about $2.50/gal. Cut it about 4 parts water and 1 part cleaner.

i use eagle 1 wet shine, spray and wipe down the mowers everynight with the stuff and they look like the day i brought them home from the dealer.

[slabpile]

you are more dedicated than i. by the time i blow it out and sharpen blades cleaning is not on the list. i do it 2 or three times a year hence the greeen stains

[ronslawncare]

your dealers should sell mower degreaser make sure you get the foam type .very cheap a couple of squirts your mowers is looking brand new again

sandblasting, takes it right off, lol. Especially on thoes visible parts of your mower.
