if you get some grease on your brush! Did a house today and picked up some dubious substance from a top opener, don't know what it was, little balls of something in something squishy. Flicked it off and carried on working. Got to the next house and the glass had a greasy pattern all over it on every window  asked the custy if he'd had the walls sprayed - but no. Washed my brush in tfr and still the same, washed it again and still rubbish. Had to soap up and blade them off. Drove home and tried my own windows - smeared again. Took two more washes of the brush in Cillit Bang degreaser to shift it. God knows what it was - couldn't feel it or see it in the bristles.

Wasn't really pure water that caused it then was it

I had one of my shops spray WD40 on a stiff lock all over the glass door :

Nightmare to get it off

The worst thing I had was when someone threw up a kebab on the window, don't ask how well that came off, makes me feel sick to think about it

Hmm, maybe spray some oil flo on it, that should work.

Never experienced this before, I'm quite glad about that by the sound of it!!

I had a customer that sprayed WD40 on her window hinges and it ran down the window below and i removed it with white spirit on an old scrim, then went over it with wfp, came up fine

If it's good enough for high level jobs it's good enough for low level jobs.

Now why cant everyone in my areas think the same as you  :

[Londoner]

Some kitchen windows can be really greasy, espescially the little flap window that gets left open all the time.

Had a house a couple of years back where they had a BBQ close to a big window and the grease had made the window impossible to get clean.

guess you don't do 2 or 3 storey domestic houses then, working at height regs

i wonder if said wd40.

i've a customer who insists on putting wd40 on brown upvc frames every year,(shiney)
. so i have to trad

just to add insult to injury theres usually a heavy downpur shortly after he's done it, leaves oily runs over glass,

If they were only 1 in road woyld dump but have 6 there ranging from £20 - £15

Problem is the greasy smears are hard to see without the sun catching the glass and by then it's too late, the glass is contaminated and so is the brush. Can't fit a new brush and redo them 'cos that gets greasy too.  :
