I've just cracked on and waited for a complaint too. No point in asking before hand or I reckon I'll be met with an ultimatum that neither of us can back down from. Now coming from a trad background I know the downfalls of watered pole even though I'm new to it. But I also know the downfalls of trad, and it is all just a big trade off between the two. Instead of the odd accidental smear, you get the odd spots. With trad you can't get your fingers into every nook and cranny, not without a lot of time and effort anyway, whereas the bristles and the water spraying into it pulls it out nicely. So all I do is up sell the positives of the new method and hope for the best. But what it boils down to is what's best for me. I got home earlier today, and still had lots of energy for training, and that's why I do it. Once I have got all the first cleans out the way I will focus on getting through my round quicker....= more money....so I can pay all this :turd: off.My changeover went surprisingly well but I'd only been tradding for a year before I switched.
I just cracked on and explained what I was doing if the customer was home. I was really positive about it to the customers too and told them to let me know if there was any problems. A lot of customers commented on how extra clean and shiny the windows looked once they'd dried.
About three or four months after changing to wfp I went to one house that I'd been cleaning for months. It was the first time the lady was home since I'd made the change. I was immediately met with negativity and she told me she wasn't sure she wanted them cleaned "that way". I pointed out to her that I'd cleaned them "that way" for the last three or four months and she soon backed down.
