This is more workshop than anywhere else...
Where can you get the large blue paper rolls in the real world?
I've tried everywhere I can think of but no luck, can buy them online but p&p is about 50% of the product cost!

1) Book holiday.
2) Go to airport.
3) At airport ask to use the shower facilities as you have had a torrid time waiting for your flights and need to freshen up before you go postal.
4) Grab 3 or 4 of the rolls.
5) Repeat steps 1 to 4 every 3 months.

Any local catering wholesalers near to you?
6 centrefeed blue rolls should be about a tenner, and you can get them from big wholesalers or sometimes littler places. If not, ask your local that does food if you can buy a couple.

It is not eco friendly.
Use old rags and wash re-use.

Razz

Cotton rag works better anyway.

My mother-in-law is a staff manager for an office cleaning company. You'd be surprised at the amount of "commercial" cleaning products in our garage Laughing

I've a feeling there are two different types of blue roll being discussed in this thread...


At work, we've got Blue Roll, in the workshop. Which is basically giant kitchen roll.

We've also got blue roll in the tea room, Which is on a circulating dispenser, and is made of towel, to dry your hands on after you wash them.

Is this the stuff like Rag? Lint free kinda stuff? Or that papery shit that just rips as soon as it gets damp?

We just ran out of the good rag stuff, now using paper shit.
