Best Squeegee
« on: July 15, 2016, 05:30:20 pm »
I do a few bungalows trad and fancy trying a new squeegee but I haven't bought one in years. What's good to get? Ergotec, Wagtail, Liquidator. Any help would be appreciated.

For last 14 yrs till 2015 used good old pulex. Always did the job (bent loads of them but cheap as chips to replace) always used firm rubber as well, again from pulex. Changed rubber 1 / 2 a month. Not much detailing that way, so cant see point of liquidator for the amount of water i would leave on edge.

I like the Bayersan ones with the soft moulded handle, just find them comfortable.

Myself I don't need to make money that bad using ladders still, going tile walking and missing top windows at back that can't be reached by trad   ???

Why do people still work this way beats me... Oh silly me I forgot they need the money.
I also know what's fast as fook and it's called gravity    ;D ;D

I know where your coming from Smurf, there's nothing more soul destroying than missing out hard to reach windows and
still getting paid.
Plus you really are a nice guy at heart substituting stupidy for gravity, lol.

Could be OK for indoors though if I don't have to dunk in so much water
