Dog earring squeegee channels knackers the squeegee rubber in no time. Just buy brass end clips for a easyier option.

Hey
Type in dog earing on the search bar.
It is a very good idea and cuts down the detailing time needed.
You will not need brass clips unless you have a squeegee that uses them.
All brass clips do is hold the rubber into the channel.
You will find most dog ear i am surprised the manurfactures have not made theire channels already like this.
I use a unger ergotech and s channel if you want some thing heavier you might want to try a brass handel and channel.
The brass ones generally use clips the unger ergotech does not and there is no need at all for them in the unger ergotech.

Gazza did you find the results of this far better??
I did try but i think i bent them to far, as middle of the squeegee was not making contact to the gass very well.
