I didn't even think about it, and nope. Who wants to waste time walking around looking at overpriced snake oil, leave it to the wfp newcomers, the more money they waste on flashy gear the less profit they will make and realise that the monthly payments are crippling them and give up in 4 years.

Now...i was at the Carol Nash bike show weekend before last, now that was worth it, and I'm test riding a BMW s1000r on the 20th.. now that IS fun. ;D

Yeah, fun definitely wins out over stuff like cleaning shows

It’s a big fat NO from me.

Never needed to walk around looking at products. I’ve managed this far without going, so won’t ever go.

Seems pretty pointless to me. Then again, I’ve learnt that there are some very bored window cleaners out there 🙄

I’ve travelled to the last few window cleaning shows. A day out with a fellow windy mate and I got about £200 off a guttervac last time. Met Kev Martin off here too (so not all good   ;D ).

I wouldn’t be interested in a general cleaning show though.

Been to 2 of marks cleaning shows in stoneleigh.  They were interesting and if your in need of some equipment then its good to see and feel them before buying and getting a discount on them as well.

I reckon if your a newbie and went with someone who knows window cleaning, be it trad or wfp, then its a good way of seeing them all in one place and by having someone experienced with you, they wont waste their cash.

Apart from that, its quite boring really. I wont be going to any more.

I think I will go this year, for a specific reason...

I’m due a new car in 9 months (lease runs out) and I have a problem I’m sure many window cleaners have faced before; I like having a van for work, and a separate vehicle that can carry passengers for the weekend etc. Now I am almost at the point of needed to put another vehicle on the road and taking on an employee.

So, I would really like to have the work van as it is, but also a work vehicle for me that can double as a car. Crew vans are no good, don’t leave enough room for the tank etc plus I don’t like them.

I think that Ionics de-mountable portage system might be the solution. That way I can get a double cab pickup and have the system on the truck bed. I can use that vehicle for work and leisure. For work I can use it for window cleaning and to go for quoting etc but also use it as a car when not working.

I can also remove the system completely when going on holiday etc so can use the truck bed.

The only thing I am slightly unsure about is how poles will fit in, so I would like to see the system for myself and have a play with it. I’m assuming Ionics will have one at the show.

No!

Haven't been to a motorbike show in years! Good days.
