Thanks ... exactly what I was looking for.
It claims Ireland has been chosen as a testing ground for this glass.
Unfortunately it doesn't say anything about the cost
or where it can be obtained,
but I have written to them to ask.

I live in a 4-storey building (an old orphanage)
and it is more or less impossible to get at the higher windows
from outside - the only way to clean them
is by taking them out internally.

Almost any glazing company could supply it.

The inventor was a company called Rytek. They produce a "Non-stick"
liquid coating which is used by several window companies in the
production of their glazed units. Rytek "Clearshield" was featured in a
BBC programme called "Tomorrow's World" when it won the Prince of Wales'
Award for Innovation several years ago.

I know that at least one major UK replacement window company supplies
windows with this product "as standard" on all of its windows. A large
and well respected firm in Belfast sells windows made by this UK
fabricator.
