Dave.
It's good that you're asking but it's much easier to show it than to describe it.  Also, everyone will do it a bit differently as well.  As stated before, you need to go out with someone for a day or three.  There is a course run by the BWCA as well on this.

Hi
Try freewindowcleaningtips.com
I down loaded a video, got two others with it
Unlike the web address it’s not free (about £8 to £10) but still think its some of the best money I spent when starting.

Hope it helps
 :) :)

Hi David

I found the description and pictures at http://www.rd.com/content/openContent.do?contentId=17661 very helpful when I started (somebody else posted the link here a few months ago).

Have a look here


http://www.easy-sharing.com/?b

If you zip it it doesn't have to be uploaded as streaming video.

I haven't had a good look so if ther are any catches I havent seen them.

It seems you just upload the file and then you get a url to share for download. Also one to delete it if you want to.

Hope this helps

Andrew
