I'll tell it like it is Rog.
Much like Ross and Dave do too mate.

Nice to see un-blinkered wfp users.
I know the benefits, but I know the limtations too.

..and Jm123, I've seen lots of wfp results, including from people who talk it up on here.
I've very rarely thought it's anywhere near as good as I get them. ;)

No disrespect meant, but to be honest most windows look bright shiney clean, however they've been done, in photos it's probably more about catching the light right than the method of cleaning.
Ask Roger, he knows all about that one for sure.

This arguement pops up every now and then ......and will always!

My opinion.............

19 years traditional. Nearly 1 yr WFP.

Trad - lovely spotless finish! - Bloody hard work, bloody lugging LADDERS!!

WFP - easier, quicker, overall better service, earn more money - but LEAVES WINDOWS WET!!

Thats the bugg bearer with WFP - leaving the windows dripping wet!!!.

A bit like a baker puts a cake unbaked in the oven and it comes out lovely - he knows it will!!

99% of the time our windows dry of fine - but, especialy at first when we are learning, that one dries out with runs or spots and the customer rings up!! 
It knocks your confidence!!

WFP is SOOO simple -
Brush and wash then RINCE well with PURE water = Dries out to a perfectly clean job!
It's the logistics of doing that that can make WFP more complicated!

been wfp ing 2 months. gradually weaning it in.

  Heres my opinion. leaded windows definitly a better and quicker job done.

 Georgian windows with good paint work ditto.
 georgian windows with bad\paint work, try them but if bad dont bother.

 upvc are a complete lottery some turn out pukka, some are so bad i wouldnt pay if i was the customer. But i hear they will improve!!

Well I've been doing my parents upvc windows for months now and done then at least 15x but still get the horrible white lines of spots all down the glass when dry, tried numerous ways of doing them but no joy, must just be one of the bad ones, just hope none of my paying customers are getting anything like that, although I'm sure I would have heard by now.

I have problems with my own UPVC windows with runs from the black seal as it seems its been put in upside down as the join is at the top and collect the dirt always get a few spots from that.

But i don't do my windows very often anyway.
I do them when the moaning from the wife gets too much.
