FYI no such thing as self cleaning glass. What they got glass panels with scrim attached? twits ;D

Hi,

Not the green scouring pads that are used to wash dishes & pans as this will scratch the glass like hell. (Go & try a bit on your house window). Use 0000 grade wire wool that you can buy from a decorators merchant & wrap that around your applicator.
