I use one regularly (on a separate pole) and have yet to see any scratching.
Ensure it is kept free of grit and use with plenty of water.

They are a lot better than a brush on stubbon dirt but only work well on flat surfaces so not so effective on the framing etc on conservatories.
You could also add a SMALL amount of tfr to the pad for extra cleaning power.  ;)

They are very good for removing most stuff but get in the way for some window frames and low overhanging soffitts.

Ideal if used separately as a quick pole for overcoming heavily solied windows if it's close to hand.
