Same as when i stopped i imagine,  no difference,    I'm sure i got sparkle well over a year ago off ebay but sold by someone who used to be on here,  now there's someone who tries to sell everything ever invented on fb offering it so i wondered if he joined up with original seller.  Or i may have got the name sparkle wrong but was definitely something like that

Yep that's the bloke. I heard about sparkle on here got some but never got round to using it n can't find it now but I'm sure it was a lot cheaper than his stuff so I'm trying to find out if it's same stuff or not

Every now and then on those FB groups you get someone pop up saying ‘whats this Vision stuff Ive heard about?’

Then you get the usual responses, some think its a waste of money, which it is, others think its great, because they can’t clean windows reliably without believing they’re buying in to something that is the dogs danglies.

Talking about selling stuff the really smart ones are selling 20 ltrs of box standard cheap 10% hypo with a dash of scent and some suffactant in it at over £70 inc vat & delivery and mugs like me are buying it  ;D

How come you're buying it then smurf from what I've read you have enough experience with hypo not to need to buy stuff unless it's got some special /hard to get ingredient in it

Peace of mind really and makes an easy sell knowing the product is certified for its intended use.
Cost wise it would be good if the product was cheaper as is very expensive for what it is all the same.

I personally think the price of benz blackwash needs to drop considerably as must put a lot of people off buying and/or stop using  it when they can quite easily make their own similar softwash hypo based mix themselves at a fraction of the cost.

I see Scott Denning has posted a vid on bookfarce pages today of yet another additive called "Devils Shine" 
How many additives does anybody need and what is the point of it all beats me. Surely he is wasting his time?  ::)roll

No, I could have sold Froff by the bucket load. Window cleaners aren't very bright lets face it.
