How to clean a Juwel Cold frame?

[Greatgardens]

I've had a Juwel cold frame for about 5 years, and the polycarbonate panels need cleaning, mostly internally. Mine has the ~3/8" thick panels. I've sent a couple of emails to the mfgr. in Austria, but no responses.

Anyone have any suggestions on cleaning?

Soap and water and a cotton terry cloth towel or clean cotton tee shirt.
Don't scrub hard let the soap and water do the work.

Thanks, but the tricky part is the internal portions of the "corrugated" polycarbonate panels. I've yet to figure out how get the aluminum frames off from the lids so as to run something down the inside of the corrugated channels. The insides collect algae and dirt that enters through the vent holes. I'm losing a lot of light...

I just purchased the Bio 1500 online this afternoon. I'm very excited to start to keep lettuce outside in Earthbox Jr and take it at night. I have wanted one for years to keep seedlings out of the high winds we get here. Greenhouses, sheds.etc are not allowed in my neighborhood, so this fits my needs as close as I can get.

Did you find a solution to your cleaning the internal portions? Any other suggestions on use and care?
