plus gardiners dont go to the events do they?

No gardiners are not going to windex,They rang me the other day to ask if they could give a window cleaner in my area my details so he could look at my slx.She said then that they were not going

so if i spent £500 + on a pole and it came an i never liked it, what do i do? just grim and bear it or is there a returns policy?

[chopsie]

I do not know steM.I assume thats why he wanted to see mine,Probably would accept returns if never been used,as in most things ordered online or through catalogues,

I have never had a single problem with bird muck.
I give it plenty of water to rehydrate it then clean the rest of the windows, then come back to the window with bird muck.

I wish I'd had you on my team the time we did Sheppey College.  This is a very large school on the Isle of Sheppey and is exposed to the Thames Estuary and North Sea.  It hadn't been done for several years and every seagull for miles around had visited and left a calling card.  We went along an entire face of the building (approximately 75 m) scrubbing with a strong water flow, then went back and did them all again.  The result was we hardly made an impression on them.  I got my trusty Powerpole out (weighs a ton) and tried again - not much better.  Even after attaching a scraper to the pole and laboriously scraping every single dropping the 'ghost' was still visible on the glass.

There are degrees of severity in everything, it's a brave person who says: "I never have problems with....."

Done that mate and it doesn't work any better than the brush itself.
I remember a post by Dave ST Ives a few years ago and he put it very well.
" The bird muck was still there, but only a shadow of it's former self".
