Welcome to the forum, Paul.

I haven't a clue what a 'rat's tail mop' is, but I'm sure there's plenty here who do.

Hello from Me,

Quote

One thing I wanted to ask was if anybody uses a rat tails mop? when we used to clean leaded windows and small panes etc we would clean the glass with the rat tails mop and then go over the dampness with a scrim until dry,

Ya I used to but micro fibre and small blades now (when not using WFP)

Good luck in the new enterprise.
