I use them on bad first cleans for upstairs sills, and conny roofs.
I also have a green Synthetic sponge Scourer roll from b&q that's 6mm thick, 140mm wide by 3m long for about £5. I cut sections out and use that, it lasts a lot better than the Gardiners pads but I only use it on glass conny roofs and sills. I use the original Gardiner pads on polycarb.

Window Cleaning Forum / Gardiners Through Pad

I bought one a while back just in case. I used it for the first time last Thursday. I had the internals to do on a public swimming pool. Never been cleaned. Brush wasn't working very well. Pad was 👌 https://gardinerpolesystems.co.uk/quick-loq-water-through-pad-holder-1-pad.html

I wish brushes worked as well as these.

Anyone else used one?

This is interesting because I always jump head first into making it a puzzle, I must solve. Will be carrying a small plastic bag with small iso damp cloth to see how it reacts on the trails. Understand I will only be able to do ground level where most are, will get back with results.  😉

Take a bag a of snails and plonk them on the window. When the snail has done his job lob it in the nearest hedge.

In the early days I fell off a ladder - another local windy was going around to my customers saying I wouldn’t be back
Thankfully lost just one customer to this underhand activity


This happened to a local windy a few years back, another established wc(toerag) found out and randomly knocked on doors whilst canvassing telling people he had taken over his round. Unfortunately he lost quite a bit of work through it. He could have helped himself out though by communicating his predicament to his custy's but didn't.

As others have said I find it best to scrub again with water turned off (after I have first cleaned window). Seem to come off easier this way and also saves water.
