Get ready to remove plenty of eggs from windows tomorrow, from the darling little TRICK OR TREATERS brigade.

How does wfp cope with this,i have found it very hard to remove by trad methods in the past.

Will it not glue up the brush head and ruin it.?

Cheers Jeff.

From my experience of the phantom egg thrower wfp is useless, i had a customer who kept getting targeted by these idiots and i had to keep getting my ladders off to sort out their mess as wfp wouldnt even touch it.

I think a Thermopure will remove it, however my WFP system won't touch it.

It's ladders time, if they've hit an upstairs window.

Its no yolk when this happens,

I'm sticking a scrubbing brush un my pole, taking a spare bucket with me, then filling it up with very soapy water and scrubbing the offending egg goo by dipping brush into the water.
WFP will rinse it without touching the glass.
Those bloody Americans have a lot to answer for
Our little scumbags copy it and use it as an excuse for anti-social behaviour
The sooner yo ucan get to it the better though...the longer it has to set, the harder it is to get off

I fully agree.  Global warming, two nuclear bombs on Japan, genital warts and halloween trick 'n' treating!

My back windows got eggs thrown at them Sunday night.

Buggers started early by me.

Cleaned it off yesterday evening with my wfp and just had to give it a good soaking and break it up with the edge of the brush.

I didn't take that much longer but it was a pain in the butt.

The only hard bit to get off was the egg on the frame.

Use a 'Tucker' pole with plenty of detergent tablets and hot water and it comes off a 'treat' not a 'trick'!

Tosh ime not coming round to remove your eggs

[pjulk]

I tend to soak it a bit with TFR and that does really seem to help.
Leave it 5 minutes and WFP of usually comes off fairly easy.

I tend to use TFR for quite a few things as its brilliant stuff if you leave it to soak a while.

With egg, I'd give the window a good soaking. Not by scrubbing with the applicator, because egg makes a mess of the sleeve, but squeeze out the water on the window above where the egg is.
Leave the water to soak into the egg a few seconds, then use a sharp 4" scraper blade.
With that it comes straight off. Then you can finish by giving the remnants a scrubb with the applicator.

do you charge extra for removing egg? I've got me flats to do tommorrow and they always get hit

My very first customer's window was covered in egg.  The egging happened about six months ago and it was totally baked on over the long hot summer we had here in the Pacific Northwest here in the U.S.

I had to use my 5-inch razor blade, lots of warm soapy squeege-off water.  This one window took about an hour.  If the shrub wasn't in the way, I could have done it much faster, but the egg was baked on hard.

Whoa, talking about difficult window for traditional cleaning! 

[JM123]

Glassjockey, if you don't mind me asking, how much did you charge to clean that one window?

[GlassJockey]

To be perfectly honest...  I told her that every day I drive by her house I see how bad her window looks.  I told her I was just getting started in the window cleaning business, and since she could be my first customer, I would do the window for FREE.  If she was happy, then send me referrals.

That worked out well, because her mother came over later that day and was absolutely amazed at how great the window looked, and asked if I could come and do all her windows.

This is where it starts for me.  One free job turns into a more (paying jobs).

Just trying to get the ball rolling here.
