Gary's right. Stubborn marks tend to need some agitation. Just using more special, 'aquaplaning' water won't shift them; they need a bit of effort.
I'll put you down for a dictionary for Chrimbo, anyway, Gary  .

aquaplaning is when you are driving and you hit a patch of water, and your tyres don't make contact with road and you either get a deep fill of dread and glide along until safe or spin off and die a horrible death, so applied to window cleaning I think it would be pretty useless as the brush would not touch the glass

Stu, you've got it completely wrong and so has Andy Hamster. We're talking about wfp technology not cars or planes.

If you wfp fast enough, the brush aquaplanes on the glass as the water provides a cushion of sorts. Also, when done at speed, the force of the brush pushing water ahead of it creates a type of minature or micro tsunami which then pushes dirt and debris out the way much more efficiently than just rinsing.

The resin or sap from some types of plants or trees can aid in this process as it breaks down the surface tension of the water. I am at the moment soaking money plant leaves in a barrel of water to experiment.

And there was me thinking I could drive through puddles and people would come out and pay me.

I`ve got Stu down as being right and as for the rest of you,its nowt to do with leaves,its time of year and density.And as far as window cleaning goes the denser you are the betterer

Aquaplaning wfp and leaf enhanced pure water is the future.

I think you'll find Ionics are researching this to find a synthetic form of the natural product and I wouldn't be surprised if Alex Gardiner doesn't already know all about this.

Is a mushroom a leaf sometimes?

only if you survive the puddle, it could kill you

That's true.

does your wife know about you destroying her plants lol

It's all in a good cause and anyway, given time, the plants will grow new leaves.
