Aluminium windows and doors come in a variety of finishes.
The frames can be "naked' aluminium,
or anodised - usually the classic bronze from the 70s & 80s
or maybe your frames are coloured (or look painted) - which means they have been powder coated at the factory.
Unlike wood, aluminium doesn't rot or swell with moisture, but they can all do with a little TLC from time to time.
A quick clean with warm water and detergent works wonders on the powder coating.
The anodised frames can look a bit dull, so a light scrub with the green plastic scotchbrite-type pads and soap followed up with a little metal polish can restores its shine.
Keep away from strong solvents and abrasives and you should be fine.

It is of No benefit to the dog to be left in a hot car with the windows down a bit as this has no effect for them at all even if the car is in the shade. Please read the SPCA reports to confirm this. This sort of thing happens a lot in supermarket & shopping center car parks. People tend to think they will only be a short time but things always take longer than you expect. Please leave your fur babies at home where they can keep cool & hydrated. It only takes minutes for your car to heat up. I can not fathom why some people do not realize this. Also there are a lot of people out running their dogs during the heat of the day (on Bikes as well) and without water. They are not machines and unfortunately a dog does not always know to stop when it needs to which can then put the poor thing into heat exhaustion and even kill them. I am hoping that people will not get upset at me writing this post as someone has to speak for those that do not have a voice and they depend on us to keep them safe. Thank you.

I have asked neighbours twice to please eradicate the ivy on their side of the fence, but to no avail. Can anyone suggest a good weed killer that I can spray on my side of the fence that would help please.
