High dusting arsenal?

So, besides Home Depot style feather dusters, microfibre pads, etc, what does everybody like for high dusting? As in, light fixtures, ductwork, etc?



Looking for something that can be attached to a shop vac???



I'm talking about the stuff you do with poles, not out of a lift or ladder (pretty easy). We use the basic dusters on 30' poles, and sometimes compressed air, but still haven't got exactly what we want. What works for you?

Introduction to WCR

Hi there guys and girls,



I have only just recently joined WCR forums although I have been window cleaning around Australia for 17 years. Currently, I run my business in Newcastle, New South Wales. I have 60% shopfront / office work and 40% residential. Although, in the lead up to the Christmas break - the peak of summer here - my residential work increases greatly, as so many who have ocean and lake views want clean windows for their Christmas and New Year parties. I am happy to oblige and collect the accompanying cash!! Lol! I love window cleaning and the flexibility of the lifestyle.



Thank you everyone for your interesting ideas and feedback.



Cheers,



Duncan

QUESTION: For the guys who bring their pure water or use backpacks

...how the crap do you not run out of water in like ten minutes?



a 5 gal backpack would seriously last me 5 minutes. and then you are burning tons of time refilling that thing, over...and over...and over...



the way i see it, in order for you to save any serious time over trad methods, you need to be running 1gpm (or more)out your brush head. otherwise it's too stinking slow. you spend so much time rinsing with those jets running like an old man with prostate issues trying to take a leak. i try to blow as much volume as my source will allow. basically, more volume x proper jet orifice= greater production. i think that's pretty much fact.



i could see if you had a mobile system and a 50 gal buffer tank and you could top off as you went, but i just don't get how you can pack a few jerry cans of pure water and get anything done.



can someone enlighten me?

Another newbee, now Dutch

Hi colleagues,

I am new to this forum. After window cleaning services as a part time job for some years together with a friend, i have recently started a glass scratch removal service in The Netherlands. We are using GlassRenu system and are quite satisfied. After one year we have a reasonable amount of work. I would have two questions for the forum:

- does anyone of you also provide nano glasscoating services? Which markets do you target?

- can we use our GlassRenu system for car windows: we are somewhat hesitant because of the possible distortion...
