Title: This left me puzzled
Post by: Chris Cottrell on July 19, 2009, 07:52:06 am: Well i was asked to give a quote this week, nothing unusual in that get them every week but when I got to the property on saturday morning , looked at the front .... nothing difficult there ... went round the side yep again ... nothing difficult there either then round the back I discovered this ...................

and after inspecting his windows they were spotless and no trace of any soap residue .. so really puzzled why does he require a window cleaner , probably cant be bothered to do them himself anymore

' AQUA GLEAM De-ionising Water Filters
TIRED OF WATER MARKS & STREAKS ??
Many people prefer to wash their vehicles by hand but are often disappointed when impurities in the water leave marks and streaks.... and attempts to remove these usually result in cloth marks instead.

The final stage of any good car wash system is a pure water rinse that ensures a spot free finish. Now, thanks to the Aqua Gleam in-line filter you can enjoy the benefits of virtually pure water, giving you a spot free finish when washing your car at home.
