1st cleans can be tough, but once you rinse well and scrub like crazy they should come up ok. It will be slower than trad the first time, especially if you were using fairy liquid before. It does get much quicker on the 2nd and 3rd cleans though.

What's the point in tradding the bottoms?

You would use less water doing the bottoms the trad way..... and faster...... would you agree

first time if you spend double the time scrubbing and rinsing.


4 -5 times with wfp and most windows will come up great with minimum effort.also they look fantastic!much better than trad especially upvc ones.

now maintenance cleans are a breeze as the windows are much cleaner and no soap residue in sight!! ;D ;D ;D

Generally speaking thats true. But once the time is taken to get a window up to a good standard with WFP the re cleans should be vastly quicker and also leave the frame and glass to a lot higher standard than any other method.

i wouldnt agree with that myself as i think i can do the bottoms just as quick.just thhink youll still be carrying your water and your equipement wacking against your leg,i found it most uncomfortable wfp and carrying trad gear,but all the best.

i nearly always have my trad gear on me with a bottle on a belt even though im mostly wfp!doors and awkward access ground floor windows are easily cleaned by simply putting my pole down!!no need for carrying bucket!

depends what work im doing but this suits me on very compact estate work.
