Jo Ive been looking through some stuff regarding the Dragonfly internal cleaning system and in amongast all those posts is this one

http://www.cleanitup.co.uk/smf/index.php?topic=104913.msg891725#msg891725

where you sing the praises of the Pico-Spray system.

Also you mention the Karcher V50. What is the purpose of that bit of kit, is just for hoovering up damp left onsite? and is it really necessary?


Also with the Pico kit can you explain how you use it please mate. Do you use scrim or micro-fibre, or blade or what?

Cheers.

I just got a karcher for £30 on eBay it's a squeegee with like a Hoover underneath that collects the water as it comes off....

yes the karcher is nesesary, i fill the pico with pure water only, then spray the glass, you then immediantly scrub with the pico pad, once you have done that, a light spray again over the glass, then squeegee with the karcher, there is no judder with the rubber, you dont need anything else, those 2 tools do the job, if you do buy the pico spray, buy another 2 pads, as they do get dirty, also carry a bucket with pure water only, and rinse the pads in it to clean them, never contaminate cleaning them using tap water, the pico takes a little to get use to, but once you get the hang of it, its a breeze, 1 fill of the pico with pure water can clean 8 very large panes of glass, and it only takes seconds to refill, and just for the record, i changed the rubber on the karcher to the unger very soft, it lets you get right to the bottom of the frame without it coming of the glass

How long do the batterys last on them ? Also do you have to charge the unit up or can you swop over battery packs ?
Only those who risk going too far will truly know how far they can actually go

the battery lasts around 45mins, does not sound like much, but that cleans loads of glass, am working on a battery adapter that can be joined to the karcher, and runs of the battery on a belt, so it can run continuesly, again when i get time,
