What's Evans High Class? I've tried some of the other detergents and to be honest I don't think they're as good as they purport. GG4 certainly isn't slippy enough in the dosage they recommend.

I did a search and the results that came up were for a Hardfloor/Marble detergent, is this the right stuff or am I confused!!!!

I have tried a few differant detergents.

GG3 with pure water
GG4 with normal hard water
Fairy
Unger gel - Crap
Unger liquid - smells nice
Ettore squeegie off

Out of all those i prefer Ettore Squeegie Off.

If i was traditional only i would stick with fairy but as i use WFP i don't want to use fairy on a downstairs window incase i WFP it maybe a month or two later.
Because sometimes i WFP up and downstairs and sometime i do downstairs traditional and with squeegie off i don't get a problem.

GG3 and GG4 i find you need to put more than the recommended dose in to get a descent slip and see any foam what so ever.

This is the Evans high class that we use.  Different supplier but same price/spec etc.

i also cannot find cloudy ammonia, maybe its an ozzy thing, seem to remember reading a thread a while ago from someone in oz who swears by it
other than it obviously being cloudy how is it different?
 why can't you use ammonia? and who says so?
bought some regular ammonia today to experiment with my own mix with a bit of fairy and rinse aid ,
anyone else tried it? what quantities?
thanks  ;)

 How much of anything you put in depends on the hardness of the water, if your not sure ask the missus she will tell you if its soft or hard  :) :) (cant believe how that came out  :o)
If you want slide with anything, best is a tea-sthingy(t e a s p o o n)  of Sainsburys water softner powder. Try it.
