Title: sun too much already!!
Post by: Cleaner Windows on April 19, 2007, 11:30:42 pm: at around 1.pm today got to an area where we do 3 offices, but by this time it was very hot and the windows were baking. Started to clean em but as soon as we put the liqued on you could see it steaming!
We done our best but even tho it looked clean...at a glance from another angle, it was very smeary to say the least. Tried to give it another go with loadsa liquid but again...not good. Decided to leave it till tomorrow a.m (early) to escape the sun and hope for a better result. the windows are tinted so i spose absorb heat more?

Post by: macmac on April 20, 2007, 05:56:10 pm: try some gg4 denis, it may help you, it has an additive in it that slows the evaporation process down, thus giving you a wee while longer to blade it off.
