did you avoid getting water into  the vents, thats the usual cause,

[brightnclean]

Its not the amount of water you use. Its how and where you put it that counts.

Accuracy is very important to get consistently good results with WFP.

cheers john if have time will pop down very bussy what do you think my prob is

[Majestic]

With some houses it will take a couple of cleans to get rid of old Fairy , soap residue if you give them a couple of cleans you may have better results.
Just give a good rinse after cleaning

how long did it take you and what size house / how many windows dos it have 35 ltrs of water minght not be a lot depending on the size ? when were they last cleaned ? the muck collects on the tops of the frames and until you get shut of this it will keep runind down until you get rid of this . i tend to avoid this now but its what ive got used to . are you allso cleaning your brush off in between windows ?

[m.b.s.]

7 2 windows 1 bay with 3 big windows 2long small windows about 1/2 hour no i didnt know you hat to rince the brush i thought the flow of water did this

thanks john do you meen clean them and leave to dry then clean them again or clean them and go away and go back in a month and clean them again dont think customers will be too hapy with that i also thought you had to clean the frames

[jouk45]

if this was your first clean, the frames will be filthy, usualy the dirt will seep from the  window seals,
eventualy it will stop after a few cleans, what i do is wait for the windows  to dry, then go do the rest of the windows, then go back to the first window, if there is any running marks, just turn down the flow,
and do the glass only,   then next time you go back to clean them,   do the whole lot again,  then repeat just what i told you, eventualy they will come clear,

[m.b.s.]

thanks jouk do you mean do the frames every time and then the glas with lower presure

[Nathanael Jones]

I used 200 litres on 1 house last week for a first clean (5 bed detached with conservatory, but still...), so 35 litres doesn't sound that bad! For first cleans I always turn the pump up full, spend twice as much time on each window,... and hope for the best, but even then it doesn't work every time. With some windows it doesn't matter what you do,.. some windows just need to dry and be washed again for some strange reason. Stick with it,... it'll come right soon enough!

[jouk45]

yes, after your few cleans are done they will come good,  turn the flow down and just do the glass, after the frames are dry, dont worry to much about the frames, its the glass thats more important,
at the next clean, do the frames again,  just dont rush things

[d s windowcleaning]

35 ltrs dos seem a lot to use even on a first clean . the water flow alone will not fully clean the brush off . i allways brush mine from side to side on a part of the frame . try it and if the frames are white you will see the dirt flow out . i was told if you keep your brush clean youll keep your windows clean & up to now mate i aint had 1 complaint & been going nearly 1 year woth wfp .

thanks all any more tips would be usefull how many use a veristream and how many dont

[jouk45]

i have change over to car spray nozzles, and its cut my cleaning time down, you get more than double the power to shift dirt, also its cut my water right down, watch the power
