Since going wfp, when I do insides I use purified water in the bucket, about a third the amount of fairy I used to use and a splash of gg.  I honestly think it's the best I've worked with so far.  I may be fooling myself, but I like it :D

Funny enough that is exactly what a customer said today!  He honestly said, "What do you put in there? it smells nice".

I do wonder whether the composition of water makes any difference with this stuff, perhaps it could explain why some are ok with it and some not, unless where all using pure with it. lol Pj  ;D

Yes I realise that Pat but hard or soft water can be made up of differant elements in differant areas,  just wondered if maybe it made a differance.

Terry please don't take offence to this as I respect your record but I looked at your website and watched your video of you In action and I reckon I could knock at least 7 seconds off that!!!

What Is all the swirling In the middle all about??????? Maybe I'm missing sumit. Please shed some light on this.

 ::) That's just him showing off and messing about.

If you saw Terry on Record Breakers like I did as a kid, you wouldn't believe your eyes how quick he does it.

With respect terry
you should try to educate your customers not just give them suds because they want them my kids want sweats for dinner but I dont give them sweats I give them whats best

my windows are clean they can see they are not just look like ive cleaned them because they had suds on them

Fairy leaves more residue than gg3 4  thats a fact  it also looks more pro than a bottle of fairy

my opinion only but I think you have to try it yourself not go on what others say

This is the daddy bear, baby bear senario.

You'll lose if you've got a challenge in mind.

ok guys ;D yes I have tried gg3 gg4 and riding a bloody gg,and I was not
blown away by it so we stick with what works fairy,as regards the sweets etc,the customers pay the money end of,if they fink your being tight with no soap er gg3 gg4 soap does not stay very long,but we all use what we fink is best,yes I only use a 12 incher for the record windows
to give you some idea of speed its around 2.40 seconds to clean a window of 45 inches by 45 and move to the next window ;D the circles
try doing a full 180 without taking your hand off the window at speed,TV love this stuff,I have done a TV comercial with the 2 most famous ladys in cleaning :o :-X and things will be clear to all soon ;) I have only been in the wc for 30years as a record holder since 1995 and just got faster,
if you have looked at my web site you will have noticed I am a blackbelt in karate,this has made me what I am today,I always was fast with my hands,this has toned my speed mind and body,confidence is somthing I do not lack,fings r going to change some what for me,I have only dreamed of the like,this is a great forum I said this some time ago may long it carry on ;)I think some people do not understand the  years I have put in to what and who I am today it do not happen over night :)
