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.

For the most noticeable snails trails I clean them in the same direction as the trail itself, for the remainder little ones they will disappear when the glass dries, no point being paranoid as they won't be seen when the glass dries.

Great thread this.

I’m going to try some of the techniques mentioned.

Snail trails are an absolute ballache wfp, that’s  for sure.

Leave them, when the window drys you can’t see them again  ;D often I find you can’t even see them until you get the window wet.

If they’re visible before cleaning the window, I just scrub till there gone. No particualr technique.

I'm always paranoid that the customer can see them from the inside!

I never had a complaint in all these years, so I’m guessing they can’t!

Brush in a circular motion clockwise and then ante clockwise

Wax on. Wax off!
