Is it the brush or the low winter sun
« on: December 23, 2015, 07:18:23 pm »
The lad cleaned 3 semis all next to each other  this morning . All the backs were perfect , but all in the shade . The fronts had taken a beating the last 4 weeks , wind and rain . They dried terrible in the low sun . I went and recleaned em , only slightly better  finish . I was embarrassed asking for the money . They all paid but not entirely happy , Is it the low sun drying em too fast and showing every speck on the glass , or is it the brush . We both used super lite mono , but they are both 4 months old and worn . Do they lose there power .  Last day of the year as well . And the first complaint .  ???

Whats your TDS, did you rinse off the glass, was it the insides, can you clean windows etc...

Mate it could have been a number of reasons, maybe try using a bit more water.
Also maybe wipe and then rinse the top frame before you clean the rest of the window (if you're not already)

Personally, chill your beans and enjoy an Xmas break  ;D

Have you only just realised wfp is crap when the sun is shining directly on glass even worse when it's really hot :o

Precisely - I've been saying the same thing for the past eight years. It's basically crap but works most of the time.

Windy ' they were fine when I cleaned them '  ;D ;D
