 i used to clean windows in the mid 70's chamois and scrim, most on domestic used it, ;) had a round sold it due to realising my shoulder would soon fall off! recently a friend has took over a round, no chamois anymore,squeegees water fed stuff... it has made me seriously think about taking it up again, things have changed  it seems a well paying job these days  i used to enjoy the job, i'm getting on a bit in years but a nice small round round...  maybe

thanks for the warm welcome, have to decide how to start, and what gear to use, i like the idea of the wfp method ,but have never used it, i'd hate to buy the gear and not like it , i'm against going on expensive courses, did it once with carpet cleaning,-- a right rip off. geared at selling the equipment. my ideal round would be bungalows with trad methods--fat chance of that though!! any one in the east of manchester willing to show me the wfp method? i'd work to pay my debt off!!

regards red
