I am a big fan of OXY CLEAN and a gallon or two of boiling water poured into a 2 gallon pump up sprayer.
With a pump sprayer, the pressure is not so high where it removes "too much" such as paint and markings etc... however boiling hot water and oxyclean does a VERY GOOD JOB at removing dirt and grime.

question with the OXY clean do the crystals dissolve enough not to clog up the sprayer?
I did get a small steamer like the one suggested
Big thanks for the warning of the purple stuff! Makes me glad I procrastinate
