Ubik

[Reach N Shine (Kent)]

Hi guys a little help for a newbie, although I've now been a window cleaner for around a year, I'm only 3 weeks into running on my own, I see a few posts mentioning Ubik, could someone explain what it is, what it does and where's the best place to get it from. Thank you in advance

It is the blue chemical sent down from the cleaning gods themselves

It melts all who stand before it

eBay £20 for 2 x5 L

I prob use one or two times a day

It really soaps up so it can be a Bugger to rinse

I've used it to clean slate roofs and today I used it inside on PVC

Mainly it's for conny roofs gutters etc

I used ubik for the first time today , having used virosol for a year . Can't make my mind up which is better !!

 

[Taxlossloz]

Never used virosol will have to try

Ubik is a product designed for the food industry but adopted by cleaners the world over.

Get's us all out of some tight jams.

Virosol is far easier to stain upvc with

Stick with ubik

It's basically the same stuff with added oomph

[Dave B]

A lot better

 

[steve hawing]

Need some advise about how much ubik to mix with water and use it in a small handheld spray bottle

In which context? For Windows? It doesn't really matter, if to weak add more to strong dilute more, a dash of unik and water does job for me say 200ml ubik rest water
