Hi all,
I'm wanting to paint my window sills and ledge but have noticed there is a thin, black elastic/rubber adhesive where the window meets the frame. Clearly it's only black because the windows haven't been cleaned in years but I can't seem to clean them I've tried soap and water as well as white vinegar and bleach.
Should I just paint over them or will the dirt contaminate my paint brush?
Also you can see from the wideest shot that the ledge is split level and the higher level (the bit closest to the window) is some form of plastic. I can't tell if it's painted or not so should I paint it along with everything else?
