ok just done a wash with half a pack of VS to try and it works just fine .took about 18 days to finish sat at 21c in fermentation fridge low and slow
tastes great very clean used 5kg sugar.if you are in no hurry may save you a few quid over a long period.not sure if its any better than a full pack using 5kg sugar.i suppose if you are really penny pinching its worth it.
just wanted to see if it worked.

Not surprised at your result.
As I would expect, but sometimes until you do it yourself, you don't believe it.

It can save a few pennies, and if you have the storage/brew capacity, is no hardship.
