Probably time to change it now mate,

I personally wouldn't work above 004ppm. Not willingly anyway. Ha.

I change mine around 7-10 ppm, although it's sneaked up to 30 with no complaints  :o

Iv had spots at 000 you will find that it wasn't the tds that caused them.

why?

Because windows that i have cleaned for nearly 4 years wfp that always spot were worse with 006 -010ppm

For all i know it could be the placebo effect but for the sake of a few £ no point whatsoever.

We are lucky because we get around 95% of our resin free still, but it could change so i wanted to see whats what.

If we do get spotting and i am using 006 - 010 how do i know if its the water or technique?

I swear the windows cleaned better, dried quicker and rinsed better.

But like i say could be a placebo effect. But far far happier with 000 now.

It was on a red hot day, i put it down to the tds but could it have been the water drying to fast on the glass? i was working with the sun direct on the glass.
