wfp V's egg
« on: November 19, 2007, 10:26:31 pm »
I have a job in the morning 'First job of the day'  A house that has egg on 3 of the windows...

She said the windows have not been done in 4years  :o

But the main thing is the egg... It has been on the window since halloween  and its quite thick...

How do you guys get on with removing egg with wfp?

Sorry if this question has been asked b4.

Thanks

Neil

Easy,
remove your brush and screw on a taper adapter cone like on the end of a normal pole used for applicator or squeegee,
use a scraper that fits on the end of a pole like the Triumph scraper and then turn on your water squitring out the end of the pole hose and scrape away,takes only a few mins from start to finish,then re-fit brush and carry on as normal  ;)

i tried using just pure water before and it takes ages! you guys not found you have to scrub for ages??

i just got a 10 litre pump sprayer thingy me bob! it will shot to around 3 storeys in height, so for a 2 storey house would be fine.

i know you've got it in the morning neil but load yourself up with some tfr comes in mighty handy...looks like your just gonna be scrubbing like mad, although i wouldn't of thought it would come off but if these guys say they've got it off before then you may well.

Done the job this morning, couldn't get all of the egg of the window with wfp alone! Customer was happy with what i did do and the fact it will come of after a couple of cleans!  Just after i finished it started P1ssing down  >:(

On top of the rain... when i was transferring my water from ibc to van tank i went to make a cup of coffee.. when i come back to the the van there was water coming out of all 3 doors 'back and both sliding doors at the side'  :-\  The hose somehow pushed itself out.

What a morning

I see what u mean... But if this is the case i might aswell get the ladders out and clean it by hand! would take 5minutes..

Thanks
