Going to start a big clean tommorrow and i know it's going to be hell with WFp .going to trad bottoms but the rest have to be wfp, the frames are wooden and they will make that milky mess !Do you think if i just give them a quick scrubb then leave them to dry and just rewash the glass it will dry ok. The windows are three glass panes to a frame so i would work say 50 windows along on top frames then go back reclean glass and lower frame then start again .
thanks for any ideas

You will need to go over them twice the first time concentrate on the frames give them a good scrub and use a good flow rate do all the windows then go back and do just the glass this way they should come up good you can always check again once you have finished

You don`t need to go over them twice,just take more time at each window they will only come up so good as the frames allow.If you want to remove all oxidizing paint forget it you won`t,some windows 3-4 years on when cleaned every 6 wks will still milk up from time to time it`s just down to the windows,just make sure whoevers paying is aware of it.

If you clean the frames well enough then most of the oxidization should come off their will probably be some left but if you check over your work at the end and the windows are dry you will be able to see any problem areas

Did a very big job today, literally all the frames were oxidised, did the frames first, (all georgian btw, so I did all the crossbars) and then the glass, did see instant milk on the window after they dried. Totally forgot to tell them, they seemed well pleased though, the whole building was gleaming even from a couple of feet away. I will tell them later.

so would it not work then quick srubb on frame wiat to it dries then just clean the glass, waiting for them to dry is not a prob as it's about eight days work!

Yes it's possible, but it all depends on the frame, for that to work you would ideally need no crossbars etc, or do all parts of all the windows in stages avoiding run down. A pain, but what can you do.

Has anyone checked if Isopropyl made a difference? Or hot wfp?

[wightsurf]

I don't have hot wfp and have never tried Isopropyl would this be of any use?

Isopropanol makes a difference on all windows,i`m not going into it it`s all been said before.

You wont need to, its meant to be sunny tomorrow, you might even get a phone call.

True, but I must have missed where anyone said it made a difference on Oxidised frames?

@ Matt, it was already sunny here now and then, so they should have spotted it. It wasn't too bad though, I had to look at them from one feet away.
