Several guy's over on yellowbullet.com swear by LA's Totally Awesome cleaner. Best part is it is sold at Dollar General and is fairly cheap.

I use this product, and it works very well on "streaks". Be aware.... It is pretty aggressive. Don't use it in the sun (surface should be relatively cool), and rinse with clear water before it dries......

Is it a soloution that could possibly be deluted and mixed in with water in a bucket ?

Yes. The bulk LA Totally Awesome has a mixture chart on the bottle. I use it also. Stop over to the hardware store and buy a house siding scrub brush that you can screw onto the end of your push broom handle, and tear it up.
I have had the same success with Simple Green.

Essentially, it is a degreaser. So, I've actually used Dawn Dishsoap, also.

Awesome Orange in the orange spray bottle is also sold at the Dollar store. It is a smaller, diluted version of the bulk product for the same price. Buy it in bulk.

[QUOTE=Joe Hertline;243895]Stay away from "Black Streak Removers". They do a heckuva job of taking away black streaks, but they leave "White Streaks" if you're not careful.

X2 on that for black streak removers. They will take off the black streaks, but wait to you see what it does to your shiny aluminum trim, it spots and tarnishes them, and I followed the directions. Learned my lesson the hard way.
