Resin beads on the glass???
« on: January 10, 2017, 12:50:33 pm »
So.... a couple of weeks have gone by now and I've been rinsing windows and then seeing grit on the windows, so I scrub & rinse and rinse and rinse and yet this grit is still there when the water runs down the windows .
Is it possible to have resin beads in my tank?
I have an ibc in the garage and transfer the water from there into my van tank as and when needed.
Appreciate any help 👍

They wouldn't get any further than the pump,  pumps don't like resin, I know from experience.

Ah- does resin destroy the pump? Within what timescale?

Depends. A single resin bead can get stuck in the diaphragm - game over.

May seem silly, but is your brush clean? Are you rinsing on glass or off glass?

If do a rinse off glass, can you see the beads rinsing down the glass with water flow or are they stuck on the glass?

Is your hose particularly old? I have seen the rubber inside deteriorate although admittedly a rare accordance and on a cheapo garden hose.

I'm constantly cleaning my brush, I rinse off the glass as I couldn't get used to rinsing on.
It's after I've rinsed off , the water sheets down and then I can see 1mm bits of grit , it doesn't happen on all windows though...

I bought a new hose reel and hose from pure freedom last year, although I do have some garden  hose going between the hose reel and the trolley

Have you checked the small pump filter if you have one fitted?

Are you sure it's resin beads and not little air bubbles? Sometimes I get windows where it really looks like there are resin beads all over it but they are actually little bubbles- sounds daft I know but it does give the impression of resin beads. The reason being is that you state it doesn't happen on every window.

I'm not 100% sure its resin , but it does look like grit or resin

It does, I reckon it's bubbles. Have a real close look next time and feel it with your finger to see for sure.
