Title: Using ecover in my trolley
Post by: harunh on March 21, 2012, 11:42:03 pm
When it comes to cleaning conservatories... you will get some right dirty ones... and a lot of people use E-cover.

do you just dip your wfp brush in to a bowl with ecover mix ?  ? ? and then just wash like that ? ?

after you have gave it a good scrub.... do you jsut rinse it with pure water untill all the ecover is gone ?  thanks

i wont use ladders... i may have some step ladders on hand though :)

I will always clean my brush after ive used it with ecover

what else shall i be aware off ?

thankyou

Step ladders are more of a risk than a ladder at equivalent heights.

What's with the 'ecover' crusade?

I'm not being sarcastic, I'm curious.

use ecover as detergent for trad cleaning by all means as its a very cheap effective solution for squeegeeing and leaves a lot less residue than fairy for example but for wfp cleaning just use pure water.if you start messing about with detergent youll takes ages on the job and not make much money.also the risk of spotting will be a lot higher!!

its not called pure water window cleaning for nothing!!JUST USE PURE WATER ON WINDOWS,NO DETERGENT!! ;) ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Conservatory roofs are the one application where WFP and pure water is no good.  You got to get up there and you have got to scrub sometimes to shift litchens and baked on bird mess. Then an old WFP pole and brush connected to the mains to really wash off all the bits.

if your cleaning a dirty conny roof then trf or virasol sprayed on with a 5l pressure sprayer is good then wfp on outside tap but for regular window cleaning then pure water only IMO.

as dazmond above said is completely right, however, if you want real ease working on green stuf, hot water is the way forward, get yourself an l5 fogwash or something like that, i was sceptical at first, but now there is no house that i wont turn the old gas on for
