Maybe you're a bit too diversified...

[Fat Mike]

Yeah i rarely use razor if at all on the window. I prefer to use chems designed for windows to remove debris result of construction installation... I usually turn down CCU anyways

exactly turn down CCU, when you think you're gonna charge enough double it instead

not all new glass can have a blade used on it. even the new stuff nowadays. its microscopic ridges that the blade catches and drags everywhere.

a friend had that on a new construction every pane was scratched. 3" blade is a bad idea. if using a 1" blade your much safer. even steel wool can't be used on them

Yeah, thats why i tell clients to have their window washed 2x or 3x a year to protect the window otherwise it will get damage by elements or water spot/stain that will need more aggressive cleaning..

All new current glass, i use white pad instead of steel wool to be on safe side, cuz i don't wanna pay for it...

i love my sorbo channels have one thays 30"
use 18" all the time. use ninja handle tho

i got an 18" moerman fliq didnt like it. 12" would've been better.

i use wagtail instead all the time.

have 3 wfp's. tucker, triple crown and gardiner

That's another reason I quit cleaning windows. The only good jobs I got was in the middle of summer, where the reflection of the sun blinded me while cooking my water on the pane. Screw that! I have some dirty carpet in a air conditioned room that needs cleaned.

i get cooked on some but not too bad. even if im doing cleaning some customers keep homes 80 and above which is nasty. least outside get some breeze.

we generally avg pretty high and overhead is stupid low

 

[hogjowl]

I tell my customers the AC must be on at no higher than 72 or I can’t clean
It’s up to them
There’s a 1000 cleaners around

I want to try the Moerman combinator. One of you recommend and one don’t?.

channel is too light at the length i used it at.

thats prob why dat changed it too ettore channel (heavier and sturdier)

ive yet to modify mine. it has a different style then my wagtail highflyer though moerman scrubbers hold way more fluid than wagtail hyflyers.

i like the hiflyer for the less fluis when working indoors but gets annoying exterior work.

moerman adjustable angle handle is good too. just found the edges get chewed up faster than typical square cut

combo and fliq are two different tools btw

combi's are for straight pulls only typically

I have my eye on the xero pure

I’m not in the #business, but we clean a lot of windows and doors.

definitely helps too learn the techniques if your doing a lot of glass in your janitorial accts. makes everything faster and dawn is cheap makes mirrors a breeze too

 

[Kenny Hayes]

I do them, the right way. We just don’t solicit window only. But we have too many not to do it the right way.
