Do you offer soft washing as a service along side your window cleaning business?

I think for this soft washing and using hypo so to say, or even algo clear it's just a case of having a second tank set up in the van for applying chemical, once it's all on, it's just a case of back to original tank to clean off and rinse.

What happens if you don't have an outside water feed to connect that up as needs water mains to work  ?
Not alot if wanting to use that thing I'm betting so it's not so "cleaver" after all is it now  ;D ;D

Not only do you need it connected up to mains water you also need a booster pump to work properly so you will either need a geny or power from somewhere to hook up to.  Gets better don't it  ;D ;D

Never argue with an idiot, they will only bring you down to their level, and beat you with experience

Lee, this is not a new thing in the UK as quite a few have been doing so say soft washing for years.
It's only recently that some have thought about jumping on the band wagon and making a few quid selling the gear and chems over here hence why all the hype.
