There’s a spray called cemstrip which is decent, but nowhere near as quick and efficient as a good sharp  scraper.

I love builders cleans I like parking up and watching some poor sod doing em lol,I take it you need the job the only time I’ll tackle cement on glass is if it’s for an existing job that have had work done other than that I would never entertain it.

My only advice is:
The time it takes you to do the builder's clean, I would rather spend canvassing for new work!

Made mistakes years ago by doing them not anymore you are cleaning them up the majority of the time for someone like me to come along and get the easy bit,as said if you need work spend you’re time trying to get work that just wants cleaning not many builders will pay 100 odd quid for something that will be 25  for the homeowner when it’s been cleaned up.

I work cleaning a building site that is currently in build. I use tfr on first clean followed by hot water with fairy sprayed on after that. Lots of dust but quite a bit of concrete too , generally it does come off after a few cleans

I will only do them if they are already a existing customer, and even then i hate giving them a quote for it.
