The title of the video on YouTube is a bit misleading, because this is not fast AT ALL. But regardless of that, its still pretty entertaining to watch.

Hello!

We wanted to share with you a little bit of the exciting products we saw and people we ran into at the ISSA Interclean convention in Amsterdam this past week.

Steve and Cameron spent the entire week at the show, meeting with our vendors and learning about all the up-and-coming products and techniques so that we could bring all this information back to our customers.

Take a look at all of the cool things surrounding Unger’s booth:

The traditional tools we have all come to know and love:

A new and exciting item released at the show: Unger Ninja Sleeves and T-Bars!

The sleeves are made up of part monsoon and part microfiber.

 

J. Racenstein should be seeing them roll into the US and our warehouses mid-June, so call us next month to get yours!

Also, check out these “trickster” window cleaners Unger had showing off the ease-of-use of their Ninja line:

 

 

Next, we stopped by the Ettore booth. It was very pristine, white (nice for a cleaning convention!) and well displayed.

Steve and John Becker from Ettore looking happy.

After Ettore we stopped by the IPC booth.  They do a lot of manufacturing aside from window cleaning, therefore their booth was HUGE!

We stopped but the IPC Pulex section and found all of our old friends:

 

And a new one!   We found a great new product for indoor cleaning:

Fill the jug at the bottom of the pole with pure water, and use the red lever on the side to spray the water onto the glass. The pad at the top of the pole is a replaceable microfiber pad.  A pretty cool, light tool to clean those tough to reach indoor windows easily and efficiently.  Coming soon to the US!

 

As we were walking through the show with Shawn Gavin, from RHG Products, we ran into our friends from Brodex WaterFed Poles!

 

And later met with the guys at Ionic:

Their cool booth:

And of course, their awesome new line of Water Purification systems:

All of these new and improved systems are in our new catalog.  Ionic has put a lot of work into improving these systems. Call us today to learn about their exciting new features!

Also in their both, a demonstration of their Swift Poles cleaning Solar Panels:

AND, the amazing new 18 Meg Ultra Pure water purification system.  Information about this new, extremely efficient system can be found in our new 2012 catalog (page 127)

 

And finally… some silly products, people and experiences we found while at the show:

First, we will start with this guy! He gets an A for dressing the part!

 Shawn’s pick: an automatic show cover placement machine:

In goes the foot Out comes the foot, with the shoe cover on:

 

And lastly, check out these guys using their boat, that holds purified water, to clean yachts!!!!

 

 Hope you enjoyed our recap of some of the cool new things we found at the ISSA convention!

If you ever have a chance to head to Amsterdam, take the opportunity!  It is beautiful!

Here’s an on the job video of awning cleaning. Footage was provided by James at J & J Window Cleaning Service in Fresno, CA. The product he uses in this video is Winsol Deep Clean. Deep Clean is safe for removing most heavy soils and streaking. It a powerful cleaner that does not pull color from inked awnings. As you will see in the video, it restores the awning to its original beauty. Deep Clean is effective on both vinyls and woven fabrics and won’t harm the most delicate of fabrics.

The steps used in this video are:

1) Apply Deep Clean with Pump Sprayer
2) Let Chemical Sit for 8 mins
3) Agitate with Soft Bristle Brush
4) After Scrubbing, Let Sit for 3 mins
5) Using a low pressure wash & tip, rinse awning
