I've used both SYR Glimmer Glean and ETTORE Squeegee Off.

I have tried using the stipulated dilution rates with both but find I have to use two, or three times as much to achieve a proper detergent effect - this gives enough suds to see what you are doing and gives good slip/slide when squeegeeing.

or chuck a squirt of fairy in for suds and slid it works great

[Chris Cottrell]

I use gg3 not a lot of suds thou

is it ? at what price?

[macmac]

the correct dosage for unger liquid is 100ml per 10ltr. this gives a ratio of 100/1.
I tried the unger liquid for a few days & thought it was rubbish. it smears like mad on some glass. you cant always see the smears unless you look at the glass from an angle, when the sun gets on it it's even worse, but look straight on & all seems ok. terrible stuff. on a particular window i've done for 3 years it was realy bad, smears all over, tried, tried & tried again, no better.went back to my other detergent, did it again, perfect!

for me it's (per 10ltr of water) 10ml-gg3/4 + 10ml of squeegee off. perfect in all aspects!

[Alex Wingrove]

no i change it regulary

i cant stand dirty water, dirty cloths dirty hands, and it has to stay warm

what how much do you use

[macmac]

at the very most i change my water once through the day, but with the solution i use i only have to touch the applicator in the top of the water nown again. however, if it does get dirty (first cleans, filthy farms etc) i change it right away as like yourself, i hate using dirty water.

Not in our B&Q they used to sell squeegie off but now have exactly the same bottle and liquid but just renamed it under there own name.

Anyway i use squeegie off

Tried all that GG3 and 4 and think its rubbish and well over priced

you don't wash out your mop, or scrims after a cloth job or keep it wet

what about rinsing out your snotter cloth the one you wipe the sills with, that never gets a clean?

i never rinse any cloth out in my bucket because of that very reason, thats why your using so much water. have a seperate bucket for that stuff.

[Alex Wingrove]

or w/e you use

i agree paul, gg3/4 is rubbish on its own, useless, but mixed with squeegee off or a drop of ecover you get a great working solution & there's no denying, it does make the glass gleam.

I dont use a wet cloth alex (well maybe twice a month), i use an applicator & squeegee for all my trad work with a clean scrim & sill cloth.
