Can anyone tell me what the new Unger "MicroWipe is like, and is it better than the scrim ?
Thanks

not the best person to answer this cause i hate scrim never got it to work no matter what i did.
micro fibre cloths seem good and i have used it a few times. use a light spray of water on it and it cleans most stuff of glass. pretty good for anywhere you cant use a lot of water.

Practice your technique so that you only need your scrim, microwipe or blue towel to touch up the edges. Only clean windows that can't be squeegee'd with a cloth. Make sure your solution isn't too strong, enough to give glide but don't be Bubble Man
use a good rubber and fairly light pressure.

Yeah i agree with Mr Burrows, the yanks do have a different understanding, whilst i was in a bar in downtown Miami having a drink with some of the locals i got my ciggies out and asked in a loud voice weather anyone would like a fAg, it whent awfully quiet and i got some strange looks

I used to use scrim, but when they began to wear they left lint-like flakes on the glass. This was eliminated when I changed to Unger microfibre cloths.
Another advantage is that microfibre cloths last a lot longer than scrims.
