Is there a good method to clean Azek? I just found a gold mine (I think). (4) 18′ 1×4’s per bundle for $10/bundle. Just a little dirty. I bought three bundles with no need for it, but “I couldn’t pass up that incredible deal (as my wife often says).” It’ll get painted naturally, but I think it needs to be cleaned before it can respectfully sit in a rack for a few months. Can I use just some regular car wash soap, or should i use a dish soap? I have no idea.

He's got two 4x8x3/4 sheets for me for $12 each too. Minor scratches and dirty, but I rarely use a whole sheet anyway. I'll cut the scratches out or fill them with something.
I've used Cascade automatic dishwashing detergent powder in warm water with one of those nonabrasive blue scrubbing sponges. Wear rubber gloves. It's rough on your hands.
Power washer, soft scrub, acetone, paint thinner, I clean it with whatever works, never had a problem.
