I'm On The Pill !!!
« on: March 05, 2010, 02:34:01 am »
Just looking for some advice here chaps...
I am using The Pill by Unger at the moment, but I don't really like them that much :-\. Do any of you recommend these, or do you think there is something better out there?
Thanks in advance ;)

Ettore rubbers are better (so I've heard, apparently) ;D

We use Syr Glimmer, cheap and good slip co-efficient been using it for 7 years now with 6 window cleaners and never had a complaint from them or our customers.  I've tried other more expensive products and they do no different to what glimmer does, some are a LOT worse.

Best thing to do is try a few different ones and see which one you like best, it's all about you and what your preferences are.

Squeegee off for me. Results will be different for all solutions in different parts of the country because of the hardness of the water.

ive used gg3 with pure water for 3 years and its fine, sometimes add a little white vinegar for dirty jobs. getting the mix right with gg3 is a little trial an error

I too used the Unger pill. It is very expensive if you use the correct concentration. I find that very few can match fairy liquid on cleaning power.

You know what Hitman, that's exactly what a custy said to me the other day, "how come there's no bubbles?" ??? ???
I told him not to worry about the bubbles, and just look at the beautiful job I had done ;) "Lovely job son," he responded, " 'ere's an extra quid" Lovely jubbly, I'm on the raz tonight!!!  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
I think I will try Fairy, and work my way up to a solution I feel happy with, only time will tell.
