Has anyone found (or made) a good brush for cleaning an autocover? I plan to use Simple Green as recommended by the cover manufacturer, but I'm looking for a good brush/mop head to use - microfiber or chamois? In late fall I used the pool brush to clean a few really dirty spots and it was very streaky and didn't really come clean.
 
I have used an inexpensive (and not very high power) electric pressure washer with good success. Work from the vault/roller end, wash the 2-4' can reach, then open the cover 2-4' further and repeat. As the water accumulates on the over use your cover pump or shop vac to remove the excess.
