Need your help big time as to what to suggest to do internals ??? some are 5 bays high (25 ft say) have to come go back in nxt few days to finish off mgt said understand I may take few days to get my head around it but head office sent through the memo

wagtail on a pole

Or vikan easy shine can attach to your WFP if you don't have a trad pole long enough
But whatever I think it's going to make the job more hassle

It really is good earners Michael ! Half of my income is from these stores so I really need to sort this out .....to be honest I could see this coming down the line for some time,had someone footing ladder etc but I can see where mgt is coming from....
Will check out the dragonfly later ;)
Nobody else get this problem on commercial work ???

hows about portable towers etc scissor lifts, if its as much as half of your income y'all have to invest, rhinoman from here might now a solution or possibly S.A.J these guys will know the type of job at a guess

I use a dragonfly for my high level internal work, if the job is half your income its well worth the investment, mine cost around £1000 ish

Hi Matthew ,how good is it? (These stores are done 3 times a year internally,usually just dust but not too bad ) £1k isn't too bad if it works ;)

They can do a reasonable job but, and this is important IME, only use very tiny amounts of water. Also, leave it for 30 - 60 seconds before inspecting it as it can take that long to dry out properly. Get a good supply of pads and change them frequently. You'll need a fair few on the first clean - perhaps less on subsequent cleans.
I recently did the inside of some shop windows. Hadn't been done for about 6 months. Came up fine. It should be quicker than ladder once you get used to it.
