What chemicals are you using?

[Robert R]

Hello,

We have an RO/DI system producing quality water and good results, my questions is what chemical products would you recommend carrying to make those harder jobs a bit easier?  Stubborn stains/marks on windows, cleaning of frames etc?

Screwfix degreaser for me.

Virosol for plastic cleaning, cif cream for stubborn stains , pvc solvent for removing labels and glue , hypo for grey stained plastics

For dirty gutters & first time window cleans I use Ubik 2000. A lot of them do the same sort of thing.

Ive tried a few,
1. chemtrex (pink one) = v good
2. Screwfix degreaser = ok
3. Ubik = best

Screwfix degreaser for me. I like it as it doesn't stain frames and sills if left a lilttle too long.

Using ubik on all first cleans now, unless they’ve obviously been cleaning recently.

Thanks so much for all your input, it seems UBIK has the majority vote here.  Do you apply this using a sprayer or pad?

I use Back pack now. Had one of those sprayers (it’s for sale in the sale section if you’re interested) 

But I prefer Back pack now. Just a personal preference

We we use it for softwashing try googling softwashing it’s complicated to explain in full details on a post , make sure you know what you are doing before attempting to do it to protect yourself and others in the area , but I think there will be huge growth in this country over the next few years doing it
