Great video and DA Components is an incredible business. Darren is bringing quality to the trade. A big key point about DA Components other than the products is the environmental aware packaging and no single use plastic
Great video been looking for a new belt have unger one and it twists only a few months old .also the pad you scrub with is there a chance of scratching the glass .
Robert Bennett Great! The pad won’t scratch the glass, but you need to be careful that grit doesn’t get stuck on the pad when you’re rubbing it on the glass.😃👍🏼
Hi Ashley here in Down Under again great as usual your videos what a pity we don't have those facilities selling stuff like that DA Components has a variety of tools to do the job more efficient that is helpful tool although i have Unger one but..... this it's much better in places where never has done the windows, with pad on this it's a real one about the weather last Summer here was 49.5 Just a little hot thank Ashley for your videos
@@aemackintosh Another great thing about the Maykker T-Bar is , after youve cleaned fascias & soffits with your pole system you can put a Unger blue micro wipe onto the T- bar & dry off the drips that are “always” left hanging.Job Done! As Wagger would say. Think he has retired. Good man.
As an individual, I was searching for a good source of bronze wool provider in Europe so thanks for sharing da-components :) Interesting this walnut pad, I'll definitely have a look at it.
Would you say that the walnut pad is about as abrasive as 0000 steel wool? I’ve been using the handy sleeve and it’s definitely fantastic! No more lost towels 😉
Hi Ashley, loving the videos! Can I ask do you have any tips for dealing with rubber seals that drip onto the glass? I seem to spend ages scrubbing and rinsing however always seem to leave these spots in lines down the glass? Cheers Ashley 👍
Occasionally you come across some problematic deals that hold the water and drip down a few minutes after you have gone. I like to spray them with some upvc cleaner the first time to really penetrate the dirt. Then, after a good couple of regular cleans they should start to get better.😃👍🏼
@@aemackintosh Once the runners start to bleed, think it’s because the widows were’nt cleaned for an extended period of time. I have never found a cure. The only way of not leaving the black marks off these is always use a damp cloth not a dry one.
Great tool just brought one use this with my ipc technopad I prefer this over the ferret applicator much better clean on grease and soil removal and leaves the glass perfect and clean and I use bronze pads and white pads occasionally a green pad but I see a result soon as I use this with a washing up liquid solution the detergent separates on the glass which shows the degreaser doing wonders the magic comes when the squeegee is used so much dirt is removed in the foam and the glass is clean shiny and grease free the best solution is citrol nice lemon smell and minimal residue I spray scrub leave then scrub again then squeegee but some glass may need good scrub I even invested in walnut pads to great for glass low abrasion
Hi was watching this a while ago and stumbled across the vid again hae a few jobs that would be useful for but do you reckon that the walnut pads are the way to go
@@aemackintosh would the be useful in removing silicone from glass with a pole Have one job in particular that I don't like the look of the footings fo the ladder uneven loose ground and windows over a entrance porch so can't even get the ladder to the window itself
@@aemackintosh thank you probably would be best with a scraper but it's new glass and don't want to scratch it so you wouldn't recommend an abrasive pad like the walnut and some silicone softner
The trouble is, if you have a pad on the back of your brush all the time, it adds weight to the top of the pole. So I’ve just been trying a few different solutions recently. At some point I would like to line them all up and make a video to compare them.😃👍🏼
Hear only good things about the Ova8 pole. Can’t afford one right now, but I already have a Gardiner Xtreme 22 & to be honest this pole is super light & faultless, as long as you break it down & clean it every couple of weeks like you would do with any pole. So, don’t see why I’d buy an Ova8. People say they are easier on your wrists, but the Gardiner brushes don’t fit the pole so it’s a no go for me as I only use a Gardiner 35mm brush for anything to do with cleaning glass.”Not fascias & cons roofs.No pencil or fan jets🤮 Just a 32 jet rinse bar on the glass not off.
@@vonovine I ended up buying a 0va8 22 hi mod and a gardiner supermax 4K 50ft and 5 gardiner brushes and all the gardiner brushes fit the ova8. you just have to take off the brush socket and screw on the ova8 socket, the holes in the brushes where you screw into are exactly the same for both poles.
The Window Weapon pads from Reach-It in the US fit perfectly on this Velcro T- Bar. When I bought the Window Weapon 2 years ago you got a Constructor brush & 2 sets of varying pads for free x 20. Don’t know what the current deal is, but might be cheaper getting the whole shebang than trying to buy these pads separately?
@@aemackintosh There is one for every eventuality.In degrees of severity. To be fair, like I’ve said before, have lots of equipment “just in case” but my 35cm Gardiner brush with rinse bar & “hot” water can pretty much clean anything. Use the T-bar for houses with dogs where they destroy the back door or french windows with mud trying to get in,mostly.
The Reach IT actual brushes are a waste of time as they weigh almost 500gm, a shit load on the top of your pole . When the Gardiner Xtreme with rinse bar is like 150.
Been finding this a useful little tool Ashley . Though what an absolute rip-off those coconut shell pads are! A whopping £16 for 3 scouring pads! What was I thinking! Find them useless, far to soft , with no real abrasive powers! Just went back to using 50p non scratch scourer pads!
Glad you like the tool, it’s good that you can stick any pad you want to it. Sorry you don’t like the walnut pads, I prefer them to the bronze wool pads, but if you have other scouter pads you like then that’s great! Thanks for your comments as always. Glad to get your feedback.😃👍🏼
Agree Ash. Those bronze pads, to be blunt are rubbish!! No idea why anyone would use . They also scratch!! So be carful..... tbh use the gardener pads and work amazing. Don’t get it as well carrying two poles 🤦🏻♂️ why?? Any way thanks for your time 👍
Thanks for your comments. I just got some of those Gardiner pads to try. I’ve been trying a few different methods recently. At some point I’m thinking of lining them all up together and doing a comparison video.😃👍🏼
A.E.Mackintosh Cleaning Services sounds great idea. I use hot water (summer yes crazy 😂) but find that works for most things. Just find annoying fly Poo or tree resin can be a pain at times. 👍
I have to say that this Maykker belt is kinda late to the party... Security guards and military folks, have had this type for belt / quality for ages :D the double lock, the materials, everything. :P

Thanks Ashley, this is what we are all about to help the industry in both ways n I will do my best for the U.K
Would you say that the walnut pad is about as abrasive as 0000 steel wool?

Heather The Window Woman Yeah. Once you use a walnut pad, I reckon you won’t go back to bronze wool pads.😃👍🏼
A.E.Mackintosh Cleaning Services nice, I’ll give it a try😊
A.E.Mackintosh Cleaning Services does it last as long?
Yeah, I’ve had this one pad for ages now. You can change the position to a different spot on the pad and even turn it over to use the other side.😃👍🏼
I haven’t used Oil Flo. But you should try walnut pads if you can.😃👍🏼

Very convenient little gadget . I shall have one of those 👍
It’s very handy indeed!😃👍🏼

Do you not use a pad on the back of your waterfed pole anymore m8 instead of having 2 poles out the van?

Great idea!
Ash, any way of fixing it to the main brush pole? I'm using an slx 25 from Gardiner.
Not sure really, I’m still experimenting with it too.😃👍🏼
check on the gardiner website i noticed yesterday that they have just brought out a new cone that takes trad gear
Sounds good. Great idea!😃👍🏼
Very nice im gonna order now
Enjoy!😃👍🏼
Hi mate. How do I fit this onto a Gardiner quick lock adaptor ..? Is it euro thread
No, it will just go on a push fit adapter.
hi ashley been thinking of buying the ova8 high mod i noticed you use one. will the handy sleeve fit the ova8?
There is a cone accessory coming out soon so you can use a traditional tool (including the handy sleeve) with the Ova8 pole.😃👍🏼

i like how the belt totally latches for carbon fiber poles. the third buttons that knotch you can turn to tighten the latch.
might try this out with an unger ninja tbar. gotta get the carbon fiber pole!
Yeah, I think it should work.😃👍🏼
Which waterfed pole do you use
Anyone know where i could buy one in Ireland 🇮🇪 rather than getting it shipped over from UK?
