How to remove side panels of radiator for cleaning?

[meganfurley]

Hi
Lot of dust collected in the radiator.I understand you can remove the side panels and then the top to clean it inside.

How do you do that? Slide it out and up ? I read somewhere that a clip on the side can break when you remove the side panels!

All i want to do is give a thorough clean without having to remove the radiator from its place.

Thanks.Megan

Hi,some side and top panels come apart some more easy than others.

Some are screwed,some clamped and some press fitted.

You could brush and vacuum..bottle type brush

Just as rulers&rulers says loads of rad cleaning brushes out there Lakeland, Amazon, Betterware etc.
If you post a pic of the end we might be able to advise but usually it is the ends that come off easily (for installing) tops are often fixed, brush is the best way to go.
