Hi

Try a little soda crystals in your water really helps the rubber glide over the glass, not to much though.

Costs about 50p in any super market.

Hi valroyb

Yes still use washing up liquid, its best to use hot water it dissolves the crystals quicker.

The difference between gg3/4 is 3 is for soft water areas 4 is for hard.
