How does a WFP system handle really baked on muck on windows?

[Neil nowdownunder]

Hi all,

Just order my first WFP kit, but curious. Say in a hot country like Australia you have bird shite really baked on hard onto a up stairs window. Is the WFP going to shift this? If not what's your plan of action for this kind of situation please?

Thanks,

Neil.

No it won't, you'll need a scraper, gardiners sell a super scraper that attaches to there poles, but if you haven't got gardiner poles, then make your own, wfp won't get off what I like call 'cement poo' without some serious scraping

Thanks Jake. Looks like the traditional pole I have will still be useful then.

Yeah a trad pole with a scraper would be good! :thumbsup:

View attachment 5615 Don't faff about get a scrubbing pad attached to your brush dab this on rub it on then wash it off job done:rock:

On my old brush i did similar to this except i glued a strip of velcro on the side of the brush instead of making a plastic thingie and just stick on the scrubber if needed and use the side of the brush

Very effective..especially with old faithful virosol or ubik

Tbh i haven't had any that a spray of neat virosol won't take off on its own for ages

I'd try a bit of degreaser on the brush(ubik type chem) first, scrape second

Hey Jake Thanks for suggesting this equipment.

Nothing worse than not being able to get the cement poo off on a top window!

Ive never had to use a scraper of any description with wfp, bird shite comes off eventually and anything that needs scraping i just use side of brushm anything that refuses to come off stays on
