How much are you putting in? When i use it and give it a good stir in the bucket with the applicator, it suds up quite well. But one of the points of using this product is to cut down on overly amounts of suds on the window and frame.

I dont measure it out, just pour a dollop in but try double the amount, see how it goes, if thats to much try 15ml, I think the best thing to do is experiment a bit, find what suits you best. Let us know how the sqeegee off goes when you get it. What are others experiance of sqeegee off?

You get no suds :o You must be using the wrong mix!

I put 80ml-100ml into a 25L container. Perfect mix for me and plenty of suds.

I will admit that there are some windows that don't sud up too well but they are far & few between.

I know what you mean about the smears! White lines?? This usually happens If the waether Is really hot & sunny and you don't have the right mix.

Cheers

Squeegie off in my opinion is the best of the pro liquids I use 40 ml with a dash of rinse aid in a half filled ettore bucket, my only warning with Squeegie off, is it can make tracks from the sides if you not quick enough.

Unger liquid for me fellas 2cap fulls in half a bucket of pure, gives good slip and no suds.

Why do you want loads of suds anyway i agree that from the customers preception of you cleaning with suds is good but all that mopping up, soap getting in the scrim is a nightmare I've seen shiners round here squirt a line of fairy on there dolly and completly cover it the window is white with soap, what a mess.

I used some diluted gg4 on my brush head today on a leded first clean that hadn't been cleaned for years, realy lifted the dirt but took a lot of rinsing to get them shining.
