in the last 8 years, ive been called back twice for spotting. In the last week, 3 times!!
Went to re clean a customer today, and we were chatting as to why the spots appeared, my tds is 0, brush is clean etc.
I then notice her car which was valeted a couple of days ago, covered in dust. A house down the road i had to re clean too last week. I popped back, the sills were covered in dust!
Can only think, that we have had no rain for weeks so evreything is dry and there is a bit of a breeze about blowing the dust hence sticking to the wet windows!!
We need some rain!!! (never thought id say that...lol)

They are covered arent they.
The windows have a layer of dust but wash off lovely.

ffs don't go on about hosepipe bans....... last year it was all the talk and at the end of the year I was tempted to invest in a noahs ark... The weather is changing for the worst, we got to learn how to manage or the wind , rain , snow and icy conditions will out do us . Warm water for winter work and telling customers that regardless of weather we have to make our wages is my plan , mind you if this crap weather dirties windows and frames we will be welcomed to clean the glass I hope

Don't forget that a lot of the 'dust' will in fact be salt in the air from grifters etc during the snow. The roads around here are all grey from the salt. When cars drive along the road, they whip the salt up and it lands on window sills etc. when you clean the sill, you carry the salt to the next window. I've had one phone call and just said there is little I can do due to there being so much salt around at the mo. they saw the sense in it and I said I will give them an extra good going over next month. They were fine with that. Rain will wash the salt away. Don't fret lads......it won't be far away..... :-\ :-\
