gg3 is GREAT!!!!
« on: March 15, 2010, 03:41:16 pm »
ive used green fairy for 16 years and seen no reason to change detergent but i thought id get some when i ordered some other gear a lo and behold ITS GREAT!! ;D ;D

i put double the recommended capful in my bucket and it took me about 10 mins to get used to it.hardly any foam but what a great finish and hardly any mopping up to do!

I WILL NEVER GO BACK TO FAIRY AGAIN!! ;D ;Dwish id tryed it years ago!i was defo faster by about half an hour today on the work i had scheduled.

good using it with the extension pole as well!cant believe how good it is! ;D ;D

What tap readings would you say is the border line between soft and hard?

My water is about 130 - 140 ppm

I would go for gg3.

Dazmond, I would keep using the 2x method it slides better.

same goes for gg4.

Dazomnd, you wait till you get back to the work you have just done, you will see the difference, and the time after you will see even more time savings, have used gg for years fairy is expensive compared to it and soaps up ya clothes to much as you will know gg3 does not do it, time and money saved is always a bonus  ;D

I use 20ml GG4 and 5ml of sorbo glide in 7 litres of water in my bucket.
I find thats a great mix, if your using RO water you can use GG3

There not mixer bottles they are just measuring bottles.
put the GG3/GG4 in the bucket first then add the water.

If you order from windowclean centre just ask them for free sample of gg3 and4 it will come in a 30 ml bottle and use that bottle as a measure for 6-7 litres of water.

Your local chemist will sell you a measuring bottle 5ml upwards!

The same ones they use for your medicines

GG3 for soft water GG4 to hard water? how do you tell if the water you are using is hard or soft.

Presumably there is a tool for the job.
