I've been trad for nearly 10 years and going wfp next week or so.
However, I'll still squeegee my shops.
1: It's a more reliable result : You can see straight away if you've done a good job.
2: I'd rather not leave water everywhere in the high street : It looks untidy.
3: It's not worth moving the van every few yards down the road, and parking on pavements isn't good.
4: It's quicker on single panes to squeegee.
5: I don't want to lay hoses around the public.
6: It looks better I think. I sometimes get wolf-whistles, as do most manual workers, but I don't think they'll do it when I'm brushing away. It doesn't look skillful. :(
6: I like squeegeing!
7: Actually, I think that's enough reasons. ;D

I quite enjoyed my shops today.
Always a laugh in one of the pubs I do too. ;D

That's me wolf-whistling at you, you daft git.
I love it when I see you mincing around town with your bright yellow bucket.
I thought you knew!
;D

Blimey! Today you were blonde, last week you were 2 older brunettes.
Both of which were over 5ft 3"
You really are the master(bater) of disguise. ;D

Trad. It only takes a few minutes and wfp is not that quick at removing spit, sick and kebab

wfp outside
inside obviously trad "shame realy would like wfp"
i dont care what they want i ll do wfp even if i lose them, only thing i do notice is that over the years youll get a build up of traffic film, so you need to use a degeaser now and then .
but today i just ordered my self the hot water add on package that we have from webassco as they say it will cut through grease a bit more easily we shall see,
my end year treat to myself

thanks you lot
any more for any more

Outsides mostly WFP, but I'm in town at 6am in the morning, I park on pavements, on double yellows, the town is empty...I have carte blanche ;)
If I cleaned shops in the middle of the day like Roger, many of those I now do WFP I'd have to do trad, and for similar reasons as Roger, ie, don't want hoses trailing all over the place, can't park where I want to and so on.
I'm far quicker with WFP than trad on many of the shops, and I find WFP great for getting the spit that dirty sods have 'gobbed' onto windows too!
Sick and kebab is different..yuck!

Well I never thought I would see the day when I would read a post saying you are crossing the line over to the WFP brigade?
I am lost for words?
Happy days lol
