so how important is it to measure it out before throwing in the bucket?

with fairy i just put a bit in that would do - can it be the same for gg4?

will it be much different to using fairy - i do like blading a nice wet n soapy window

just tip some in the bucket, what ever it says use, I would use double if you want any glide on the blade.

wont get much suds with it , i use gg3 plus a window cleaning solution i buy locally, works great , better to add another cleaning solution to ggs-gg4,
on its own you have to use at least double the recommended dosage , works out expensive then.

why add something else to gg3/4?surely that defeats the object!!i use just a tad more than is recommended.

if you want more suds you might as well go back to fairy IMO.

LESS SUDS,LESS MESS TO CLEAN UP!CLEANER WINDOWS!!!SIMPLE!! ;) ;D ;D ;D

no it doesn't if you get the ratio right,used gg3 on it own for years, but it does not have enough slip,i got used to it though.
  i'm wfp now , and only use it on insides ,by using my mix i am quicker.

I use GG4 in a hard water area and you do not get many suds, Even when you
add the correct ratio into the water and it's not cheap to buy. Think I will look at buying
something different when this runs out. ;D

I remember trying all these potions and I thought they were all rubbish.

Without meaning to re-ignite an old debate I still think you can't beat Fairy for trad cleaning.

There...I said it...Now you can all slate me.

i used fairy for 16 years so i wont slag any of you lads off that still use it!! ;)horses for courses and all that!but IMO gg3 is vastly superior than any washing up liquid!it gives a cracking shine and doesnt leave as much film on the glass.i few of my custys have commented on how much better the windows are with gg3.a little bit more expensive?yes but worth it!

as for slip you get used to it.i use 14 and 18in squeegees and dont have a problem(i do put a little bit more in the bucket though).

as ill be mainly wfp soon i wont be using too much of it in future!! ;) ;)
