dragonfly indoor cleaning system on window cleaning warehouse £399.99 an add on to vikan easy shine kit using a pump you can spray water on to glass as and when needed no proper pics though you get a 20ft pole with it as well , Just a thought but if i used my own pole took off the brush head and attached the vikan easyshine kit to the pole then got an inline hose connecter for pole hose and a van jet and fitted this to sit above cleaning pad using my purefreedom trolley inside i could switch trolley on and off in short bursts to spray glass thus saving myself about £350.00, What do you all think ,opinions greatly appreciated

sounds good 2me ;D would like 2c it tho ;)
-
Would'nt a pressure pump up bottle filled with ro water work?
just make the clear hose longer, spray a mist onto the glass ???

lammy while i was their i was looking into every cheapest way possible way to do indoor cleaning, the basic pole was £62 plus vat, to spray the water the battery kit was like £400 :o anyway i lost interest, well just finishing up to go home, me and ian wilson was chatting, and we passed streamlines booth, which i never noticed before, this indoor kit cought my eye, i loved it the min i saw it, £30 and everyone is spending hundreds for the same product,
-
£30 really i need to no more jo

it is a very good kit, you can use your trolley, hand pump, backpack, its all you need, use a harris this would keep it nice and cheap for indoors, i cant wait to use it myself

u bloody tease jo :P now go finish ur drink, get 2bed. so u can get up nice n early

-
Joe got a good deal from Streamline for some parts to make an indoor kit, but the dragonfly does seem a bit overpriced for the complete kit.
Anyone thinking of making their own should stay away from any fan jet. It will just put too much water on the window. You need something that will provide a vapour-like mist.
Don't get too drunk Joe! :P
-
;D ;D Mmm just thinking now ::) stick it on a harris, use a hudson pump from gardiners, i could sell them for £200 ;D
-

Hi Paul (hitman) sorry to hear about the painfull injections.
We now have a angle neck with vapour spray outlet built in and fits the vikan one end and retrofits your pole the other, so just remove your waterfed pole brush and screw this on instead, then the end of your pole that normally connects to hose reel or trolley, connects to a 1 ltr pressure sprayer with trigger (comes with a strap) .
Shame it was not complete in time for the show though.
-
how much craig,where can we see pics?
-
picture, name and price will be on our web site sometime next week.
-
Will also come with a foamer brush which you can screw onto your pole, so you can put our uniclean chemical into the 1ltr container, this can be used to apply (from ground level)chemical to facia,s conservatorys etc as an agitator.

sounds great Craig will be over monday morn if that ok? ;D wanna have a look at that
sounds just rite 4the gym where i ave 2do the insides
-
Sounds good Craig. I think a simple pressure sprayer would probably be just as good as a battery / pump system. Look forward to seeing it on your site.

sorry for the delay with pics, i was stuck in the highlands ;D just got back tonight
though i have not tried one yet, i think the hudson 4ltr waist tank would be ideal for to complete this indoor system, look here, http://www.gardinerpolesystems.co.uk/acatalog/Indoor_Cleaning.html i have an idea that can make this become adaptable using our wfp system we already use, will show it this week some time

Then you can get the same mini sprayer like the one from Gardiner from ebay cheaper

good link cookie, there are loads of these out there, i bought one from asda £12 and it broke at the swivel, the vikans are much stronger
-
Joe - where did you get the microfibre pad for the vikan? are they cheaper than the vikan at over six pound each as i need to get a few more for mine.

What a load of rubbish £59.00 for that then i bet theres p&p and vat on top, come on get real ::)
-
Joe,
Or anybody who knows!
Where can I buy the metal arm with the mister jet? and how much?
I have everything else for my indoor system
Regards
Al

Having tried my own diy version for quite a few months, with many and various micro cloths, I suggest caution to all those guys that believe the hype and must have one of these £499 versions at all costs.
You will not beat a good scrub and a blade on infrequently cleaned indoor glass. You could alwayd use a simple wet vac and blade from carpet cleaning technology.
I just got a hazy messy finish. :-[
-
i am considering using the indoor system for indoor windows above step ladder height and on stairwell's with restricted access on easy access i always use trad
-
just dont waste ur money on the df :( £399 for the df :o its a rip off :( make ur own m8 ;D
-
Hitman,
I know you have been showing a lot of interest in these, do you know if any of the suppliers just do the Jet & Arm that goes on the plastic angle crank as in pic?
