I've never used them, though I do use the Unger liquid and the Unger Gel (prefer the liquid)

Have you tried GG3 or GG4? I haven't personally as yet used them either, but those that do swear by them.

Hope you get a few replies regards the Unger Pill, I'd be interested in the comments myself

I don't mix the Unger liquid with Fairy (just water ;))
I'll also use it in my sprayer for scrim work. If you can get used to using it without fairy its a real plus. I know that plenty of window cleaners put a drop of fairy in with the mix to help your squeegee glide over the glass, but I believe you are just negating the benefits of the specialist liquids (whatever make you might be using).

I know GG3 & GG4 are expensive, but as I understand it, it goes a long long way, I shall have to order some so I can try it out, I keep meaning to but never seem to get around to it! :-\

I use WFP now but I used to use Unger liquid and was very pleased with it. I found that you had to use the right mix (100 to 1 I think). To much or to little and it made using the squegee dificult.

I did try GG4 and I found it no better or worse than the Unger liquid.

Another positive is that on converting to WFP I found that windows previously cleaned with Unger liquid were very easy to clean for the first time.

Cheers

I used Unger liquid but found it stunk the van out.  I couldn't stand the smell.

It was bloody good stuff though.

Does GG3 or GG4 stink so badly.

I have used unger tablets but did not think they were as good as fairy, in fact after a few windows I added fairy as well!
