Its wet and dry scrim
Use a bucket of water with some fairy liquid in it.
Wet scrim then wring out nearly dry
Use wet scrim to clean then a dry (and broken in) scrim to polish.
Just wet enough glass so you can polish before it dries.

Welcome Richie!!
Leaded window's--- Use damp scrim to clean & buff up with microfibre cloth (dry) buffing up with dry scrim tends to leave tiny fibres on the glass!!
Buy Unger microfibre cloth's the cheap ones are crap!!!!!
Don't listen to GAZA i taught him everything he don't know!!
;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;) ;) ;)
(how ya doing Gaza) Richie bear in mind it will take a lot longer on this kind of work so price according.
Regards to Richie & Gaza.

RAY/;why use a expensive unger cloth,when 2x 65p cloths the size of an hanky does everything for a day,wipes down leaded glass cleans the sills,then soak it wring it out and it good for another day. 3/4 a week then wash in machine.

As for the oiling of my joints even WD40 won't work for me :'( :'(

Ray: My train of thought why use a more expensive piece of kit,when you can use a cheaper bit and throw it away {or lose it}
after its worn out {use cheepo doing sills only} save my scrim from getting dirty,use two three aday to detail.
