Not to sure, I use Milton fluid on plastic and metal as its, cheap, a good mould and bacteria killer/remover......it works better then the expensive stuff on UPVC etc

Idealy you want something with out any bleaching agents in it.......water and a soft brush would get it off....

Haven't got a pressure washer :(, I usually use a scrubbing brush, but it's hard work.
