Ecover :D
The multi cleaning fluid variety not the washing up fluid, smells nice - doesn't foam up so much in the tank as GG4 but looks similar on the glass and doesn't change the tds at all at 2ml per 100l of pure. Early days not sure what to think yet.
-
Hows your cutlery?
-
well it smells nice so must be good ;D
-
cutlery is forked off.

I also have been experimenting with Nuclean works well on trad excellent wfp and works wonders on gutters all 3 jobs with one chemical . Also better on my hands no cracking open .
-
Tried HG window cleaner today on a few interior cleans after some horrendous results with GG4, worked very well
so cheers for that recommendation Dave.
-
Yer, I like it - bought it in bulk from Amazon - should last me a few years.

Nuclean ??? what's that?
-
Ecover is good for squirting on applicator for trad . It's what I use .
2 years a go I used it in Wfp tank and had horrendous results in the summer . A big No .
Be ok in winter though or dull days
-
Been sunny all week and looks great so far. It's not the washing up liquid though.

where would you get this from ? I'm interested in trying it
-
I think tadgh sells it?
-
Tadgh sells it . Best thing I have tried even had a conny roof that was thick with litchen sprayed on let it soak then used a stiff brush on pole , rinse down job done customer over the moon . Gutter jobs I can do a lot quicker than before srpay on cloth wipe over even thick green alge comes off no prob lovely shine too . After 5 weeks windows still shine . ( even beats my mix of ecover and vinegar and cheaper per bucket/litre ).

gave some to a couple that run a domestic cleaning company they came back wanting some more reckoned its product they have used
-
Yeah, but what's it like on a little waffle cloth?
If he can't be bothered to get a proper website etc. then I can't be bothered to try it.
Or has he?
-
no idea on waffle cloth just using plain old mircofibre from screwfix I don't care if he has web site or not as long as the product does the job

Hi Dave, if you used Nuclean diluted at 100 - 1 in combination with little waffle cloths you would achieve better results than using wfp or trad on the glass, on the website its not that we can't be bothered but there are other reasons which i can't go into for the moment, trust me when its up i can then explain the reasons.

Nearly lost a job using GG3 insides blading years ago,all seemed well till the sun came out and they looked horendous when going back,direction change marks galore although when using it out of sunlight they looked good
-
Seems a bit strong to me Tadgh for wfp 2 mls makes 1000 litres and 2mls to 5 litres water for trad
-
Are those waffle cloths you keep banging on about these ones? http://www.paragonmicrofibre.com/cloths/waffle-cloth
-
also is this the same nuclean you are flogging? http://www.fisher.co.uk/1/1/25250-nuclean-neutral-ph-surface-decontamination-general-cleaning-solution.html
-
Doubled the dose tonight to 4ml per 100l - see what happens tomorrow. Doesn't bubble like GG4 so hard to tell what's happening. Water seems to be sheeting well, no spotting and no change to TDS.

2mls to a thousand litres ???
Does the water change at all at that dosage?
-
I can see the difference
-
What does it do?

Are those waffle cloths you keep banging on about these ones? http://www.paragonmicrofibre.com/cloths/waffle-cloth
No those are standard waffle microfiber cleaning cloths, little waffle weave microfiber have a much tighter weave and are engineered specifically for cleaning glass/mirrors,etc, using one damp with water to clean glass and then a second one dry to polish off for a smear free finish, they are ideal for cleaning internal glass and can also be used at height in combination with ext poles and flat aluminum mop frames(the type with velcro strips) as the little waffle weave constructed cloths will grip to the velcro on the mop frame, great for cleaning internals at height when you don't want any spills or splashes. I am back in the office on Friday and will post some pics,videos,and pricing. Tadgh

No NuClean is based on metabolic chemistry which is a breakthrough technology where you can achieve very safe and effective results on any surface that is washable with water, without having to use traditional based harsh and aggressive cleaning chemicals, you can find more info on www.intinsiti.com

Hi Paul, yes you are right NuClean can be used at much higher ratios but as you know most guys will prefer to find their own ratio which they feel happier with.

Vinegar? I bet you stink after work ;)

Don't need that much joey .
Dave you can feel the brush glide over glass better gives a better shine than just pure water

Why don't you just set up a website? I would definitely be interested in some of your products.
-
Or Ebay ???
-
I know guys it sounds stupid but there are reasons i can't go into, as soon as its up i will be able to reveal why. Tadgh
-
If your doing internal work, you can't beat tadgh's waffle cloths, you can feel them clean the glass better and clean around 8 times the number of Windows to that of an unger microfiber cloth.
Crapopinion - those linked are quite good, again better than standard microfiber but not as good as tadgh's

Smudge, did you try the chemical too?
-
Smudge, did you try the chemical too?
Hi Dave, no Darran has not tried the NuClean but has been kind enough to try other solutions for us, i had been testing NuClean myself for 3 months before we started to promote it, trust me i am one of the hardest persons ever to convince when it comes to new chemistries and i can say with confidence it is a breakthrough technology, feel free to call me anytime Dave 00353 87 9406650 if you have any queries, under no obligation of course.

Hi Darran, thank you for your kind comments, out of curiosity do you prefer the larger size or standard size little waffle cloths, regards Tadgh

I have been trying Lidl w5 rinse aid. Around 10ml to a 400l tank. No spotting and I am quite pleased with the results.

Sorry Crapinon been away for weekend paid 54 euros for nuclean and 12 euros for delivery not sure what latest exchange rate is but check with Tadgh in case prices have changed cannot compare with ubik or virosol as never used stuff was put of by risk of damage to conny roofs if not rinsed enough had bad experience with another product but love this stuff
-
most guys recommend Virosol at 3-1
NuClean will give the same results at 30-1 so as well as working out cheaper it also has many other benefits.

Hi Crapinon, thats £40 per US gal and postage to UK is £9, when ordered by the case 4 x 1gal containers postage is free of charge to the UK, when using NuClean there is no risk of damage to any surface unlike harsh cleaning chemicals based on sodium hydroxide. Tadgh
