Title: Which cloth...paragon fish scale or glass cloth
Post by: Simon Spencer on August 14, 2013, 10:29:34 pm: Please could you advise me.

I'm cleaning the insides of a 18th century house with leaded lights.

Which micro fibre would you recommend, the paragon fish scale or glass cloth.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Tadgh,

Why do you reccomend little waffle glass cloth.

Post by: Tadgh O Shea on August 14, 2013, 11:53:13 pm: Hi Simon, Little waffle glass cloths are extremely durable and can be laundered up to 800 times, just use one damp with water to clean surfaces then use a second one dry to achieve a perfect streak free, and lint free finish every time. These cloths are also amazing for cleaning mirrors (never again have to purchase glass and mirror cleaner) marble and granite counter tops, ceramics,etc.

We promote the Little Waffle Glass & Mirror Cloths as from our experience in using all types of microfiber cloths these give the very best finish possible on any glass and mirror surface. They leave a perfect streak free and lint free finish.

From our experience the standard microfiber glass cloths can tend to leave lint on the surface which will show up more in direct sunlight.

The higher the quality of the microfiber cloth the better the result.

Seeing as you simon started the thread I am happy to send you a sample set of the cloths so that you can compare and then give your opinion here as to their performance versus the fish scale or standard glass cloths. If you want to receive the set Simon just email me your address at info@jskcleaning.ie
