I don't know what it is or if it is just in this area but it's the same with any of our vehicles, if we don't wash them regularly they start sprouting algae around the window rubbers or anywhere in fact where water lays after it's been raining
Algae just keeps coming back if only washed in soapy water.
I used a mix of White Vinegar and Water on mine (50/50). The roof gets washed less often than the sides but there is no sign of algae returning.
Wear gloves while doing it (it hurts like hell if you have any cuts) and after leaving it for a few minutes, wash off with plenty of water.
We use white vinegar for loads of other cleaning and sanitizing jobs but never thought about using it on the algae. What a good idea . . .thanks for that, I'll give it a try.
I used a nylon bristled old floor scrubbing brush to get into the edges, works a treat also , the rear roof lights were very dirty and difficult to clean , use granular hand cleanser on them (gently) rinse thoroughly
