How to avoid spotting on hydrophobic glass - Water fed window cleaning

Sometimes it just happens and you can't explain it. Might be better to use rain water capture if you can but what is really causing water spots on hydrophobic glass? I always like to have a good flow of water since a lot of it is in the rinse.

Carbon fibre pole v fibre glass pole

Is it worth buying a carbon fibre pole especially if you are only doing domestic maintenence cleans? Well if you are using a glass fibre pole the weight difference will be noticeable for a start but the real difference comes with the issue of rigidity. This makes the most amount of difference. You will find that a carbon fibre pole is much more rigid and you will be able to work faster, more accurately, using less enery and earn more money in a safer and more controlled way.

Bucket v bottle on a belt



If you are still using a bucket then think again. Using a bottle on a belt can free you up from carrying a bucket everywhere especially if you are doing water fed pole at the same time and do the odd bit of trad here and there. You might even be doing tops only wfp and bottoms trad like me.
