Brick acid on windows
« on: September 02, 2004, 09:20:22 pm »
doing an initial clean, the bricks have been cleaned with brick cleaner & has splashed on windows. Have been scraping it off but takes ages!

Any suggestion please!!

bit of a sod...same as when they've had the frames painted recently....I usually explain that I can get the window clean, but if they want all that off as well, then it has to be extra....time is money !

I have never come across any problems with brick acid and glass, ever! Are you sure it is not limescale deposits?

Failing that, try using brick acid and a scourer, just be careful how you use it( goggles,gloves etc) and mind the brick work!  :o

According to Google . . .
http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&q=%22crystal+clear+550%22&btnG=Google+Search&meta=
. . . nowhere in GB. That means you should try Window Clean Centre on 0800 413512 who import quite a lot of US based products. They don't have a website yet, but accept emails on sales@windowcleancentre.co.uk
You're a Scottish window-cleaner? Licensed or not, get yourself along to www.slwcn.org right now !
