A regular chore is cleaning the ceiling exhaust fan blades after removing the protective cover.

I was up on a stool with my spray bottle of cleaner and a roll of paper towels scrubbing away, when my wife said "why don't you try the new Lysol Dual Action Wipes."

So I did - Wow - they have a 'rough' side that made short work of the job! They are amazing and I just had to share the news. They removed
the build up immediately.

NOT Monaco specific, and someone might want to move this, but had to post it somewhere.

Regards

Hey Guys.....You want to make it even easier......here is the new screen Fan-Tastic Pop’n Lock Screen - Product - Camping World from Fantastic Fan. They come two to a pack and are only about $14.00. You remove the 8 screws from the old screen and pop in the new one. The other thing it tells you is that the fan blade is held on by a single allen screw on the side of the fan blade.....I think it's 5/32. You loosen it and the blade comes off for thorough cleaning.

I really like the snap off screens, my bad neck would get sore unscrewing the 16 screws between my two fans.

Don,
Are you sure the fan blades will come down thru the opening inside,a while back I talked to the people at Fantastic Fan and was told the blades are bigger than the opening,I was going to try it anyway,but could not brake the allen screw loose.

I haven't tried it yet. I had already cleaned them when I read in the new screen package that they could be removed.
