How do I clean the legs?

Troubleshooting
Radiator still seems unstable
Ensure all provided fixings are tightened securely. Verify that the floor is level where the legs are positioned. Consider adding wall stays for extra support, especially for very tall or heavy radiators.
Legs do not fit the radiator correctly
Confirm that your radiator is a traditional double bar, 2-column, or cast iron style column radiator. These legs are specifically designed for these types and may not fit other designs. Check the radiator's base for any obstructions or uneven surfaces where the leg bracket attaches.
White finish is scratched or damaged
Minor scratches can sometimes be touched up with appropriate white paint suitable for metal. For significant damage, replacement of the leg may be necessary.
