Dilute as directed.

Same sorta thing happened to my uncle.
He used Purple Power to clean his tires & aluminum wheels.
Sprayed it on straight and let it sit a bit.
Parts of the wheel were painted black... took the paint right off!
Be careful with some of this stuff, especially if concentrated.

If you find some of these cleaners are taking paint off, I hope the runoff isn't finding its way to a local creek. My house almost backs onto a ravine near a creek and there's a storm sewer catchbasin almost at the end of my driveway that drains directly into that creek. I have to be cautious about what I use in/on the driveway to avoid polluting the creek.

I always wet down the side of my TT before applying any cleaners on the awning.

Magic Erasers and Hertel Plus work great for me.

Magic eraser works so quickly. Be sure to wipe it with a rag to get all dirt off.
