Hi guys , Im working with wfp and was just wondering if there is anything you can put in the water to help it dry as i have noticed there seems to be a lot of beads of water left after washing and they seem to take a while to go.I saw a guy using wfp around the corner from me and the windows seemed to dry really quick.

it  can take around 30 mins to completley dry up, even longer in the winter,  maybe the guy you saw used hot water, that dryes up quicker

did he have hot or wos he on the suny side

Adding IPA reduces drying time a little.

spell it out nat as thats going to be next Q

LOL!
Isopronoyl alcohol (search ebay for IPA) mix 1000:1 with pure water,.. job done!

nat dont think we need it in the summer,  or can we use it in summer

Isopropanol used in the printing industry to disperse the amount of water required to damp a lithographic plate. The IPA reduces the amount of water required on the plate by making tiny bubbles, and so reducing the amount of water on the plate, which in the print industry is a required balance ..............oh and dries quickly and sets on fire nicely.........lol

I don't bother with it anymore,.. but it does help glass dry faster..

It all depends on the type of glass. I'm sure you have heard of hydrophobic (beading) and hydrophillic (sheeting glass). I find sheeting glass dries very very quick, but with beading glass there are always a number of drops that take quite some times to dry. Wouldn't worry to much about drying times.
