I use the same as you gazza but saw these the other day in my local supplier and they seem good.

I have used the porcupine sleeves for 10yrs or more,  I think they are the best sleeve on the market.

Thanks for the replies, Roy, do you use the porcupine for all cleans or just for 1st cleans to get rid of major grime build up, will it fit my unger T bar?

Thanks, Gaz

Yes i use it for all cleans, I also use it on a unger T bar. I find imo they are a lot better than any sleeve on  the market.

 I like the Monsoon. Just use more water on dirty windows. You could also use your sill cloth and a bit of elbow grease before soaping up.
    A small bottle with your solution in too, to freshen up your sleeve.
