Hi All,
is there a way to remove the top bit and side of these radiators so to clean up all the fluff / dust that have been build up?
It is getting on my head and would be nice to spring clean them.
Cheers,

With mine, I remove the sides and then the top grill comes off. Got a side view picture?
 
The top grill should just knock off, put a large screwdriver under the lip and hit it with something heavy.
 
Yes pictures available - Ok will explore this later today and report back if that work.

Any specific tool / gadget used to clean all the dust inside as the cavity are quite slim?

The plastic bits around the valves at the top come out, and then the sides lift off, with the top.

I inherited similar in my new house, and it took a while to work out!
