Right, so we all turn the water off and scrub to get them off? I tried something different today. I wear a set of bags when I'm cleaning (keep my keys and cloths in them). What I did was wet the glass and I wrapped a micro fibre cloth round the brush. Scrubbed the glass with the cloth on and then WFP the glass. Sounds time consuming but I reckon it's quicker than scrubbing the life out of the glass.

Give it a try if you haven't already 👍

Often thought an elasticated microfibre you could slip over the brush would be handy for the odd upstairs windows that get snail trails on them.
I often use a damp microfibre on snail trails before I put the brush on them on downstairs windows. Works well for the most part. I do it by hand though

My water is so hot at this time of year in the warm weather that it really helps to get off the snail trails,bird muck and insect marks...

sometimes it just melts the dirt off the glass

I had new ground floor windows to clean and you could still see where the stickers were. Got a cloth and put some pvc cleaner on it by mistake as I thought it was Iso and it worked a treat. Probably work well on snail trails, watch this space.

Hi James, from the write up on it, it sounds very similar to "vision", which would put me off putting in the tank but is the viscousity thin enough to go through a small hand held plant mister so you could just use it on particularly badly effected windows?

Did a few big jobs with cold water today. Meant I had to scrub a bit more but I think I will be sticking with hotwater from now on. Saves a fair bit of time running with hot water and quicker on the trails also.

blow torch seems very effective

Yes, very effective on old rusty bolts also.  😉

yes.  although you would only need a drop. i use 1ml per 100 ltres of water.    I know a lot of people aren't a fan, but I wouldn't be without it now

Using the Reach-it superlite brush with the scrub pad in the middle scrubs them right off. I swapped their scrubby for medium course aquarium pond filter sponge and cut them to size and they just take snail trails right off.

What stopped you using vision?

Does anyone else use TFR on first cleans? Mate of mine recommends it.

[Smudger]

Every first clean is done with tfr - we charge extra for the time taken but makes future cleans a breeze

Sorry, only just seen your post. Early pump failure being one of the main reasons I wouldn't use vision plus I just wouldn't be comfortable leaving bubbles on the glass, I would spend an eternity rinsing,

It also accumulates in the bottom of the tank like a gel and will block the pump , it’s a placebo and not necessary anyway , why spend hundreds on filtration to remove impurities then chuck that straight in your tank madness 😂😂

Me too; never had a complaint (about snails trails).
