Anyone tried the antifreeze or meths today?

im always on the meths lol :blink:

-4 and managed to get through today, first few cleans and the water was freezing on the glass, however when i went back to collect they had thawed and come up quite well!

Had a sweeping brush with me and swept where any water was left on the floor seem to work a treat, my only concern is what problems can occur form water freezing on the glass?

Ref putting additives like anti-freeze, ethylene glycol, meths etc in water. Won't this contaminate the pure water and leave residue, marks etc?

I did hear you can use pure alcohol, sometimes known as rubbing alcohol, as this will evaporate completely with no adverse effects on the cleaning.

Anybody had any experience of this?

I checked the ppm of my Smirnoff and it was 002. Safe to say you could use that but I would rather drink it lol
