ive found that by constantly harping on to my custies that wfp is better,cleans the frames,better job etc its having a effect!
of course most of us know that wfp isnt that great and certainly not as consistent as trad and is utter rubbish on some windows but like you say its all about selling yourself and cleaning the awkward windows and skylights etc.
cleaning trad with gg3/pure and fresh rubber on ya blade,clean dry microfibre and trad is much better!better shine,dry windows,instant result!BUT DONT TELL THE CUSTIES THAT!!
dont tell me that trad cleaners dont have problems smears and whatever
because they do
wfp, the overall cleaning effect is better,the only advantage of trad is
dry glass. the window isnt just glass though is it and there is no way
trad cleaners can do justice to the frames and sills that pure water does
it would take too much time.
it gets into every nook and cranny and jointed area,between frames
and sills flushing out ingrained algae and dirt and after multiple cleans
they look better and better and your job gets easier.
i try to make every so called negative a selling point e.g. upper
cills can look dirty again after you leave as water will seep out with
dirt from between frame and cill, i explain this to the customer before
i start cleaning and describe it as part of the overall cleaning process.
they are happy with that and it saves me time having to dry
cills off and 99% over time itstop doing this after all the ingrained
dirt has been bled away.
if it doesnt i look like im going the extra mile for my customers
by wasting time turning water off and giving cill a wipe with
brush or cloth.
apart from dry glass for me there is no way trad is better overall
than wfp, far too many advantages.
if you choose believe that trad is better than what your doing now
carry on, i tend to believe you should totally believe in what you are doing,
which i do and you can get round any of the minor probs
my life is easier for it
