Title: Pilkington? LAYING IT ON THICK.

JUST WONDER WHAT PILKINGTON WILL HAVE IN STORE AGAINST US IN THE FUTURE. WHAT LIES AND STORYS THEY WILL CONJURE UP TO CONVINCE THE DOMESTIC HOUSE HOLDERS TO CONVERT TO SELFCLEANING GLASS, I WILL BE WATCHING ALL THERE POSTS IN THE FUTURE WITH INTEREST.

I have a customer who is having self-cleaning glass fitted, fortunately they still want me to clean there windows. As he said it doesn’t clean the frames and is windows have never been so clean (I use WFP). ;D ;D
 
His only worry is I might damage the film that they are coated in. I told him it shouldn’t as I am only putting pure water on the windows.
