I can still get the blue W5 it is the ultra-concentrate i have a 1 litre spray bottle filled with water and add about a teaspoon amount of W5 and it works great .

Not to soapy and allows the blade to glide nicely over glass far better than Fairy which is over rated

The vinegar and fairy was Nora Batty i think  :P :P. Mike

Buy it while you can, either local windies snatching it all, or they're phasing it out....
