they do sell a liquid but cant remember if it is squeegy off or not, will be fine though I used it for a job before and had no direct problems wfp pole'in after (I am guessing thats why you dont want to use fairy).

They used to sell Squeegee Off in B&Q but they do something now called "Quickie" or something like that.

The guys on basic wage, try looking by the hose section they have a full range of window cleaning (crud) stuff

Dazmond, dont buy barrels recycle them and do you bit to be eco  ;D hand car washes that clean for you have a stack of these, say you need a few they normally give them to you. swop a few notes under counter and you will get alot more than you need  ;)

TRY E COVER WASHING UP LIQUID .  E COVER liquid is as good if not better than squegee off and less than half the price . IF i was to add a blue dye to the clear e cover you would swear down you was using squegee off .
it cost   £1.19 in asda give it a try if you are not happy with it come on here and slate my bad advice .

They used to sell Squeegee off in B&Q. They rebranded it under the Quicky brand. It's Squeegee off in disguise, you can check the label. I've been using it for a very long time now.

I noticed the other week that Homebase sells Unger liquid, so it may be worth giving it a try there.
