I'll look into some of the info given, a couple of leads there.
Matt, working it over with something such as 'brasso' (yeah, I know, that isn't for aluminium) would be a no go. The time it would take to clean it up would be far to long. This little shop front is only £2.50 per clean!!
I'm regretting telling her I would get it sorted
I could well end out spending over 30 minutes getting this part of the front cleaned up!
The windows only take about 2 minutes to clean (the part they want cleaned is above the glazing) and I think she'll have a heart attack if I charge her more than a couple of quid extra as it is
I think I'll have a quick rub at it with something like 'Cillit Bang Crsytals' when they are closed.
Then if it looks like a long haul job I'll explain to her that it'll take so long that I'd have to charge her silly money to clean it for her.
It's funny isn't it, I can charge her £2.50 for the regular clean, it takes about 2 minutes to do; I could do 20 of these shop fronts with ease in an hour if I had them all next door to one another, an earning rate of £50 an hour (yeah, I know, in reality that doesn't happen!) but if I spent 30 minutes doing extra work and charged her just a tenner she would think I was ripping her off big time
Funny old world innit'
