Yes it is,

I do some properties WFP up and Trad down -  GG3 and a little Squeegee off in pure is really good better than tap water

No offence to purefreedom...but over £800 big ones for a barel, sack truck pump and battery? Build one your self mate, of even easier, get a back pack on a trolley.

No offence mate, but have you ever cleaned a window before. If not I would practise and practise before shelling out on a trolley system.

gg3 or gg4 is a detergent designed for window cleaning, squeegee off is another detergent that some add to help the blade slide easier and help remove all residue from the glass.

If cleaning bottoms trad I wouldn't waste your pure water to do that because as soon as you start adding a cleaning solution it isn't very pure anymore and as your taking it off with your blade ordinary tap water is fine

i did this for years, WFP upstairs and trad with pure water with GG3 in it

the plus points for me where it got the customers used to the "new fangled WFP method " and kept them happy when i changed over

i like doing them trad, you leave the windows and you know they are clean

where as with just wfp matt?u might leave spotting because of dust in the air attaching itself to the droplets so when theyve dried out it leaves spots!!even if uv cleaned the windows properly,nevermind runs from top openers,vents etc ::) ::)
