Title: Abbrasive pad to attatch to the brush
Post by: rich fraser on July 12, 2010, 05:48:08 pm

Any suggestions on a pad to attatch to the stock of the brush. I have been using gardiners new brush which is superb on spider and bird c*ap off the glass but the bristles are curling up. So I am back to my older superlight which is softer. I have bought some of the green brilo pads but they scratch the glass. Any other suggestions please

I think Gardiners do something called the "reach around"

scraper on the end of trad pole although ive only had to use it once!!birdmuck etc usually comes off after a soak and some extra scrubbing!!

if its paint and im charging more for the initial clean i usually get up the ladders if its first floor window and safe to do so.

Use WHITE scouring pads only - they don't scratch like the green ones do.
