The white powder is more likely to be easier with wfp...as is most things 

[bobby p]

think that white powder is off a frame ,if i suddenly see a big white smear on the glass  i  straight away  dont use that cloth again until its been washed back at home.

thanks bobby , thats what i did yesterday . bit of a nightmare but ive put it down as learning on the job ! bit of a nuisance if its going to happen everytime

once found some white powder in a customers  PX car ( I used to sell cars) rang him to tell him and he sent one of his lads around to collect it with a £100 for me for being diplomatic (used that word twice today) but had to split it with the valeter who had actually found it under the spare wheel.

I'm suprised its taken till now for you to find one. Milky frames if you are WFP (chalky if you are trad) are common.

the frames seem  to be the culprit mate especially the aluminium ones a tip for you on your first cleans always do the frames trad as this is a free service i provide which i point out to them it looks professional you have done them  and it will help you with wfp in the long run what back pack did you pick in the end what pole have you gone for

[croxley steve]

ordered the wcw 18 litre back pack from jv price ( out of stock at mo though ) as ive read good things about them . not sure which pole to use with it .

good choice mate will last you had mine for 2 yrs just ordered a new one just in case go for the xtel 24 ft quite light and ridgid might have to cut a bit out where the head goes thet dont cut the hole big enough will get a blockage there but fab otherwise and get a spare battery and keep them both charged £20 from remote controlled model places or online www.allclean.co.uk mate and where the water valve is encase it in pipe insulation foam wont get damaged
