Just get some heavy boots, it's cheaper than an extension ?

Next time I'm down I'll lend you my 47' with the 45cm brush, that'll cattle truck your other shoulder so you can moan about that on here as well. "Alex Alex" can you send me a free light brush as I've now got 2 bad shoulders ?

I do a job that's 6 floors and the distance between each floor is big so the building is really high.
I use an Extreme 47 with triple extension pack and at that height it's no fun at all.
If your not use to it once you go 4 floors and above WFP becomes a completely different game.
Try not to over stretch and reach using a pole that's to short.You will end up giving you self an injury.

Yes I knew was pushing my luck yesterday even just the 1 extra extension would have made a big difference,going to get the extra extension for theses couple of jobs If I get many more then I would seriously consider the extreme 47.
wouldnt fancy poling 4 and above for too many long periods at a time especially with this dicky shoulder of mine.

Try it on Friday with my Slx 22 base section, just remind me to put it in the van or just call up I have 2 brand new Slx sections #4 & #5 sitting doing nothing for the last 18 months so you might get away with a 18ft and I can sell you the other sections at a discounted price

I did think that myself you can reach the centre panels but not the side ones they are set back are set back more than the picture shows , this is a section of the front of the building

But if you have access from both side balconies can you not do opposite sides. In other words from the left balcony do the windows besides the right balcony and vice versa.

I dont think it will work work but I will give it a try easier on the arms than a 65 foot pole ????
