Cleaning windows

Thanks V. Pledge Wipes I tried a brand of hand cleaning wipes in a plastic can - good for taking off marks - but it left an oily smear - so I went with a Maguier (sp?) product for the windows - they've been at it a long while... Brian W There are a couple of products for the specific purposes of encapsulating and removing various sorts of dirt and grit from "painted" and plastic surfaces. (I put paint in quotation marks because I have been assured that most of the modern surface coatings on cars and aircraft are not truly paint in the more traditional sense) The products are certainly not cheap, but at least one of them is marketed specifically for use on aircraft and was featured on one of the AVweb communications. In addition to the aircraft specific product above, I am also still on the roster to sell a product called EcoSheen, which is market for similar use on automibiles. As you can guess from my other posting, I really find it more than a little irritating that nearly everything of this sort ends up marketed as part of the "Green" phenominon; especially when there are more than enough "real" reasons. For example, you can effectively wash and wax your car inside the garage, or wash and wax your airplane inside the hangar, even when the weather is less than ideal. With the caution that, although the web page does list airplanes, I HAVE NOT PERSONALLY TRIED THIS PRODUCT ON PLEXIGLASS OR ON ANY AIRCRAFT FINISH, the product that I have available is called ECO-Sheen and the smallest practical purchase size is called the ECO-Pack. Before some of you get too outraged about a commercial message, remember that this is an MLM product and I will not have met multiple criteria for payment. However, to the best of my knowledge and belief, you can still purchase directly through the web site at http://Lefty.MyFFi.biz/ and navigate to the product by selecting the place and language as UnitedStates/English, then ShopForProducts, ECO-Products, ECO-Sheen, press the More button, and then select the ECO-Pack from the quantity drop-down (because the default quantity would probably cover at lease one Boeing 747 and the ECO-Pack is the smallest quantity that includes the Pump-up applicator jar). For those of you who are curious, I got involved for the Fuel-Freedom product line during a period of high fuel prices and before the current "Green" wave; but found that too much of the interest in fuel efficiency, that I could personally locate, came from the owners of small cars with refill capacities too small to add the products efficiently in subjective terms--and then the price of fuel dropped precipitously...

"Dave Doe" wrote I only ever bought one bottle of Windex - won't be buying it again. And a spray bottle? - it's gonna leak one day when a PAX grabs it out of the seat back compartment and puts it on the floor or somethin'. I found it messy and difficult to apply evenly to achieve a good job. I know what you mean about spray bottles. My favorite "no leak" way to carry around soap and water is to empty out liquid dishwashing detergent bottles, and use them. The lid seals quite tightly, and it is easy to direct a squirt of liquid where you need it. -- Jim in NC |
