  Unless you are desperate for work, I would steer well clear.

  They will leak like a sieve and a breakage may well see you bankrupt.

i clean a big church every 6 months with old stained glass windows.i use a gardiners dual trim black flocked brush on them and im extra careful.some of them do leak but i never get any complaints.

WFP with a soft flocked brush is the best method mate.


best wishes
