I prefer this battery box. Charges the batteries and helps to stop them walking off. I also have the 2 x 6V T125 Trojans.

Replacing skylight after hail

I have to replace both my skylights after some hail cracked both. I got new poly skylights from Icon. My question is what to use on my roof to clean off the sealant that was used on the old skylight?
