cleaning artificial plants

[spyyro]

How do I clean the dark biological and mineral deposits on my artificial plants? I think I heard once that you can mix a solution and soak them in it and it will come off but I can't remember what that solution was. I see a product that I can buy called plastic plant cleaner that will do it but I thought there was one I could make here that was cheaper. Could someone please point me in the right direction?

Thanks!

I gotcha covered in this department lol The plastic plant cleaner is awesome, it really does work! but not everyone has a store that carrys that. So what you can do is mix a 5-10 % misture of bleach in a 3 gallon bucket, soak anywhere from 6-24 hours depending onhow bad they are. Take the plants out and thouroly wash them under cold water for 3 minutes each. what residue may still be left on easy just slides off with your finger HTH
