i use the stuff and find it better than gg3 in that it does sud slightly which makes it easier to not miss the odd scab because you can see it . it moves bird and fly muck great and also slides good
better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove any doubt

Spent loads of money trying new things but I think Squeegee off is the best. Try and mix it your own way but don't use too much. By the way does anyone want to buy 2  5 litre  bottles of gg4 and 1   2 litre bottle of gg3 oh and a big tub of Unger liquid and some sorbo glide. They are all Shi&e by the way.

if you think GG3 and GG4 are sh8te then no offense but your not using them correctly,use just a little bit more than they reccomend but not too much as its Goldilocks kinda thing,when you find your perfect amount and use it for a while you will never use anything else and lighten up on your squeegee a little it will work well

        A small squirt in a small bucket and a bigger squirt in a big bucket. Pat I've tried all the secret window cleaner mixes, Do you want to buy my surplus gg3 ?

I would but I think the shipping to the US would kill the deal, Although our local LOWES (like B&Q) had a clearance on squeegee off 16fl ozs for a dollar so i tried it out a little too soapy for me but to each his own :)

I use squeegies off.
I buy the 5ltr bottles a put one cap in works out perfect.

I have also tried all the others

Unger gel, unger liquid, GG3, GG4 and the only one that was not to bad was the unger liquid i like the smell.

But squeegie off is loads better glass gleam i hate the stuff good for washing my brushes in though.

But i don't think you can beat fairy but as i use WFP we sometimes do downstairs by hand and sometimes WFP them so can't use fairy incase of residue.

I use squeegee off with DI water  and find its great! just need a little squirt though or it will foam up too much.

Hi guys, I've been lurking for a while and i'm really impressed with the forum, its helped me out loads, i've been working traditional for the last 18 months after buying a round from a shiner that was retiring, and after using cheapo washing up liquid with a dash of vinegar (how old school?) I tried Squeegee Off, I have to say this product has changed the way i work, its amazing, perfect amount of foam, serious slip and even in the direct sunlight very few smears.
 I use a bucket on a belt and fill it up from a couple of those 3 litre Ribena bottles, fill the bottles to the top then just 2 teasthingys of squeegee off, they recommmend 2 teasthingys per 4 litres but i went a little stronger and its perfect, no need to add anything else in my opinion.
I've literally slashed the times its taking me to do houses now, more money for less effort has to be the way forward if your sticking with traditional for a while, hope this is of some help  :)

As i'm a Moderator on a large forum myself i'm not sure how often i'll be able to post because of time constraints, but you guys have a great forum here and its a pleasure to meet you all.
And whats with the teasthingys thing? HAHA.

dont think gg3 is crap i just have to use a little bit of fairy to it to make it glide,and i dont want to do that. I have been useing gg3 for 2 years but can not get it to work on its own     It works on some windows but on most it seems to evaporate making it impossible to sqeegee off
