I do get your point though , if you do enough of them in a day a Gardiner stock would get beasted !
Dare i say that i might consider putting an oval Vikan on a seperate pole for the day  :o

I find the water fed Doodlebug perfect for getting right into those round window corners!

Use a round brush for those hard to reach corners on round or oval windows. Triangular brush for everything else.

Think H man might be onto something here, as this might be the solution

Some great ideas there . I will look into them thanks . Also on the same estate they all have a square picture window , no openers . Easy to clean you would think . But the builders put them in upside down . Making em very tricky to clean without leaving any runs or drips . Any top tips  to make it a bit easier . Cheers .

Turn  the brush 180 degrees  , start at the bottom and work up , that should sort it  ;)

Problem with round windows is you will just keep going round and around  but at least you can't miss the corners  :)

that is a great idea . Next clean I will get the lad doing all the upside down square ones .  But I think I have Sussed out what to use on the round Windows . Got an old mop head , put it on the pole and gets all those corners with very little effort .

There's no easy or cheap way to get around this, firstly you will need to purify your water to parts per billion then heat it to a
minimum of 70 degrees (concrete melting hot or more ) and finish off by putting an additive in your water to make it nice and slippy, would also recommend a minimum of ten jets on your brush, fan and pencil mix.
