    6mm or 8mm hose reel

    I think Circuit Hydraulics sell it on eBay as well. The owner is quite a handy guy if there is something you want he will try and source it for you. He also does the proper Parker tema rectus fittings. Mine have lasted for over a year using them in my flight hoseless connectors. The ones most...

    Gardiner sill brush user for 4 years. Tried others but these are about the best. Although I have just swapped over to the Gardiner Universal brush with the side wrap around bristles. Finding them very good at the moment. And after the side bristles go I’m going to try and cut down the stock to...

    Gardiner Pole choice SLX 35 or SuperMax 35 3K

    Hi Alex Thanks for posting. First time I tested, I had the smax 35 fully extended to 18ft through the first 2 sections and 1/2 to 3/4 on the 3rd section to obtain the same length as my smax which I found whip quiet a bit. Then as per your message above extended sections to be identical to the...

    Gardiner Pole choice SLX 35 or SuperMax 35 3K

    Well I don’t know if it’s me but my smax 35 isn’t quite like a scaffolding pole. Lmao. Extended to the same size as my SLX 18 I find it not as rigid. Anyone have an explanation. I was under the impression that the smax 3k was suppose to be more rigid than the SLX series. Sent from my iPhone...

    Gardiner Pole choice SLX 35 or SuperMax 35 3K

    Hi Guys. I need a new 35ft’er and narrowed it down to the SLX 35 or SuperMax 35 3K. Couldn’t find anything on here about the Gardiner Super Max 35 3K carbon poles and was wondering if anyone had first hand experience with using it. I wanted to know the main advantages of this pole over the...

    When is it time for a new brush?

    I’m using the Gardiner Ultimate brush and are very good in my opinion. Used to use the flocked sill brush as my daily before this. Also when the bristles are gone on the edge of the ultimate I’ll be cutting it down to use like a sill brush. Sent from my iPhone using Window Cleaning Forums

    WFP van mounted system help

    What’s the difference putting a bench charger in a van with an extension lead to charge the battery. Save yourself £170 for almost the same thing. With the added bonus of being able to take it out so that it doesn’t corrode or get wet. Sent using the Window Cleaning Forums mobile app

    WFP van mounted system help

    1) might be a good idea. If you buying a nice system might aswell get it done properly. We had our vans Line-x ‘d. Really tough stuff and jet wash it out 4 times a year and comes up new. 2) I don’t think you’ll need it. Sounds a bit expensive but who knows. When we had a leisure battery set up...

    Leaking reel, how to stop it?

    Ok you don’t need that bit of hose pipe you’ve added between your microbore and hose reel. Connect your new clamber aqua stop to the inner spindle but before you do. Unscrew that male connector off spindle. Feed spindle from inside of hose reel. Then when it pokes through the outside of your...
