I cleaned something similar last week, used WFP...




It was a bloody nightmare and will not be doing it again  ;D



1st greenhouse we have took on in 9 years.



Mind you, if the customer is willing to pay you good money for it and you got the time then do it.

Thousands of acres of greenhouses round here.
The glass is thin and cheap so not easy to clean. The growers do it themselves usually using acid. results are pretty good though.

One of my custys has got one simliar to that....bloody nightmare to clean ;D

I'd say that glass is water stained - calcium deposits, etc.

I'd bet it'll leak like a sieve as well.

Run, forest, run.

where do you get the virosol daz?? never used it myself? - im guessing you cant use it on self cleaning glass tho, since everyone says pure water only.

I would be wondering why they were allowed to get into
that state in the first place.
Have they just moved in.
I would be thinking that they are too lazy to clean them and too tight to pay a cleaner.
Make sure you get the payment before you clean.

Virosol won't clean all that off.

It's a hard surface cleaner, great for frames and for cleaning green stuff off and all that and you can't beat it but for the mineral deposits on the glass, not a chance.

Post by: dazmond on March 12, 2013, 09:38:58 am
yeh on seconds thoughts i reckon id give it a miss!!hard mineral deposits on glass!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

i get virosol from a janitorial unit near me.about £6-50 per 5L tub.great for filthy conny roofs and fascias.

No no no. I wouldnt touch it. Much easier ways to earn £100. Even working half a week in mcdonalds to earn £100 would be easier than that. Dont do it!!!! if you have a rival wc in your area give custy he's details.

Run, Forrest, Run!

My sentiments exactly.

That glass in the side looks like it has lead or aliminium staining. I doubt that will come clean. This is one of those cleans that your reputation will be judged on by how the conservatory cleans up.

I could see this turning into a customer not being happy with the job and refusing to pay you.

i agree but on the other hand, for a gamble good for before and after pictures, go in high, higher than £100 if you dont get it not a problem then once cleaned advise a clean when doing the house windows or every other clean? worth a stab.

But i have a feeeling the owner would like it cleaned for £40 ;D
