Does anyone think like me that Fairy Liquid is getting weaker.

It seem's to be less concentrated just lately, i used to put just one good sqeeze into half a bucket of water & there was sud's galore.

I now put one sqeeze of water into a bucket of fairy (it seem's)

I use the green stuff----what alternatives are there?

What do you use?

You Polemen please don't give me too much abuse 

Regards Ray.

IT WILL BE YOU TIGHT WAD:using happy shopper fairy liquid

you can use gg3 or gg4 but its expensive compared to fairy liquid.

I use apple blossem smelling in winter,it reminds me spring is just around the corner .pmsl and Iuse standard on mon weds thursdays reminds me its my turn to wash the  pots on those  days so RAY is that why you use ordinary fairy everyday?

Hi Ray,

when i use fairy liquid i always put a lot in the bucket to give it plenty of slip, sometimes put a bit of GG4 in but like Gaza says it is a bit expensive

Ray you taught Gaza everything he doesnt know but i thought it was me who taught him everything he doesnt know   

Brett

[Ray Pickering]

Hi Gaza!

Apple blossom & the other i thought there was only green fairy!

Anyway the green's got to be the best cus i bath in it wash my hair in it & theres nowt wrong with my hair apart from the bald patch & the greyness!!

As for washing up the pot's i'm a real man & I DON'T DO POTS!!

(unless she tell's me to)  

Ray.

[Davindo Cleana]

I think they are putting less salt in it

[gaza]

your both being  observered

 gaza

BRETTwhat you doing away from the sink?

[Ray Pickering]

Hiya Brett.

Is it GG4 for hard water areas & GG3 for soft??

How much of it would you put in your bucket mixed with fairy??

Liked you said Brett what does Gaza know-----i don't know how he survived before we came along!!!     

Ray.

[brett walker]

Hi Ray

yes i think thats right about the GG4 and GG3 but i just use GG4 and put about a capful in the instructions are on the bottle, i also find it good for cleaning facias

Gaza ive finished the pots now im on my 10 minute break, dont forget me and Ray are here to help you whenever needed  , going to start designing your new flyers now i'll give you a ring when theyre finished.

Im in a hard water area and when i used a squeege i used gg3 tried gg4 but gg3 came out on top.Its not expensive considering jow much you use to water.A 1ltr bottle will last 6 months easy

[matt]

aye i got to agree

GG 4 for me

glad i ditched fairy, the windows stay cleaner aswell with GG

something to do with lanonlin attracting the dust and stuff on the windows (i wont go into too much details, as i dont want to look a geek)

righty oh, off for my tea and some TV with the mrs

[rosskesava]

It might be .......

The thing about Fairy is that they've been under constant attack from Greenpeace about all the hidden toxic chemicals that Procter and Gamble put in good old Fairy.

These companies are under constant pressure to be more 'green' and maybe without some of their secret formulers changed, their products don't work as well.

I use Ettore clean it off as I find Fairy leaves a film behind but the other 2 I work with say I'm talking rubbish.

Also I don't like the thought of all those toxic musks and silicon being absorbed through my skin which is why they always advise to wear rubber gloves.

Cheers

I use gg4, also use fairy liquid.  Saparately.
Never use Fairy with lemon or anything else added.  Just adds smears.
Bit new to GG4 but seems to add more smears than fairy so far.  Unless I'm missing something.

[Moderator David@stives]

you cant beat fairy,its the market leader ,it speaks fo itself.
you telling me a w/c company product knows better  ?
i dont think so .

[Ray Pickering]

Well so far.

It seems i will have to use more Fairy liquid in my bucket (i'm so tight) & possibly add a dash of GG4.

Cheers all

Ray.

Use less not more and add a dash of dishwasher rinse aid. I'v been using it for months. Cuts down on suds, very usefull in windy weather, Stops blow back over the blade. Brilliant with a backflip or my new favourite the Wagtail. DAi

[Ray Pickering]

Dai.

What's the Wagtail like??
What do you think are the main advantages?

I'm thinking of getting one for hard to reach windows & fix to an extension pole.

What do you reckon??

All washing up liquids will leave a residue behind, the stronger the solution, the stronger the residue.
This residue isn't visible, nor can you feel it, but particles in the air will stick to it.

The specialist detergents some of us use are designed for window cleaning, if diluted properly they leave far less residue behind, ergo the windows remain cleaner for longer.
Washing up liquid (Fairy or any other make) has a different remit to window cleaning detergent, it's a far more powerful detergent and has to cope with way more grease, baked on food, starch and all the other things that fester in your sink overnight (well if you've had a skinfull you don't want to do the washing up straight away...do you?)  than you are going to find on windows.

Is it weaker now?  Personally I don't know, I use the Unger liquid, and I no longer suffer from dermatitis.....though as most of my work is now WFP, that is the most likely reason I no longer have those problems


Regards,

Ian

[Ray Pickering]

Very constructed comment's Ian!

With something as simple as liquid's it's not all plain sailing!!

Thanks for your comments.

Ray.

Alan.

That sounds a good alternative as opposed to Fairy.

Thanks for that.

Ray.

In seven years i have tried everything .and i always keep coming back to fairy and get great results with it .and never ever get any complaints at all.

[richie_tracey]

i also use "ettore squeegee off" and think it is a very good product leaving nothing but sparkles behind, I did try fairy for a few days as it is loads cheaper but went beack to squeegee off caus the results are very good
