So you think you are showing your age do you young fellow? My favorite song is still " We're gonna hand out our washing on the Siegfried line"

Sorry off topic.....I find just a dry towel works for me.

You know, I vaguely remember that song. I think it was 1/2 a generation before me.

Anyone tried Methylated Spirits (I think in the U.S its called Denatured Alcohol) and water?

Windex smells like Metho and I know some old timers who just mix metho and water to clean windows.

Would the Methylated Spirits contain ammonia?

Cheap window cleaner that I juice up with alcohol. I don't cover with Mono and the stuff has no effect on Ultracote. When I used to use mono my trim always lifted off and I never new why until just A while back when it hit me. I'm slow but I do learn. I was just at the dollar store and stocked up on cleaner but I will be giving Kens window cleaner trick A try, sounds good to me.

I've used 409 for quite a while. No loose edges yet.

DENATURED ALCOHOL!!! Cleans fast, evaporates, leaves no residue. Not the Medical grade Isopropyl stuff, that has a percentage of water in it, that will leave behind streaks as does glass cleaners and 409. Get it from Wally-mert in the paint section.

I use good generic amonia/alcohol free window cleaner and add some Dawn dishwashing soap in it. Works great, planes are clean, shiny and the monokote has stayed on.

I was using the windex but tried the windshield cleaner and few drops of boss ladies dawn and works better actually. Thanks Ken To tell you the truth If my bottle is in the truck, I actually grab a friends talk about cheap
