i now use GG4 with a small dash of fairy :), you have the glide from fairy, and the cleaning from GG

also as you dont use too much fairy, you dont get the build up of lanolin (or whatever its called)



What that man said......about 10ml of Fairy per 5 litres of water.


This saves having to use 3 times whats suggested to get the glide from GG4. A bottle of Fairy thus lasts 2months and a small bottle of GG4 lasts 5 weeks.

Much cheaper too.

I think it is down to personal preference. IMO GG4 or GG3 depending on your water. I use just over the specified dose when using a new rubber and half the amount when refilling my bucket with purified water.

There is no way in the world I would ever use fairy again and I agree it was bad to my hands.

Hello Lads,

Well from all the GG4 hassles i've read in the past two months I think i have been lucky in the sense that GG4 is what I started with and have not really tried using anything else and, when i have found it a lot more messy.

Ecover about  the same as fairy, just kinder to your hands and the environment.
