Title: tape on glass
Post by: king marko on November 25, 2011, 05:01:35 pm
Been asked by a new customer if i can clean his new build in the morning (he built it himself so cant complain to builders) - he's also mentioned that his new windows still have some tape on the outsides that he's struggling to shift and has asked me if i wouldnt mind having a go at it.
any thoughts on the best way to clean??
cheers

You can get adhesive remover stuff but I would bother its not great. Decent scraper and lots of water I guess

What type of tape? White spirits is good for the left over sticky bits.

Job done - soaked with a bit of pure water - then got up ladder and used scraper - came off quite easy in the end - took an hour to clean house tho  :P
