yeah to be fair theres been a bit of wind and rain too here in the east mids but generally not bad especially when your trad. (which i am, on ground floor.)

its a nice time of year when its overcast and you can wet up alot of glass before it drys!

I like to do the frames quick wipe over,
wet glass,
sqeegey off,
mop sill,
then Detail  the glass edge.

How do others do there trad method?

I don't do much trad outside anymore, but do it in exactly the same order as you.

I'm off to a big outside and inside job now down the road - I'll have to blow the dust off my trad gear before I start the insides!  ;)

You won't be sayig that at the end of the month, in fact record low temps are likely within the next two weeks. My big toe never lies.
