Here are a couple of things that were launched at the american wc trade show,taken from an extract from wc mail

" Many new things were showcased.....Various WFP's the new Unger WFP was
nice had the liberty of sitting in on the Focus group to give some
input on it while at the Conv.

  Also Ettore's Contour Squeegee handle was a HIT! Pulex had the new
Stutzy Swivel handle.Also "Toma enterprises" had some rather
interesting BOAB (bucket on a belt) round in shape and a narrow slot
for the wand that actually wrings out the wand when drawing it,they
also had some Cool pouches for sponges, steel wool etc 1 had plastic
covered loops on the outside for hanging detail towels or whatever.

 As usual... Sorbo had some Trick copper/red channels he was giving out

 All in All... quite alot of new gear to add to the arsenal"

It was great seeing the new pieces of equipment. The equipment that
stood out to me were the new Eagle RO/DI battery or plug units along
with the new Aquaclean smaller 2 wheel RO/DI cart. The Unger 50 foot
carbon fiber WFP was equally impressive. A few smaller items also stood
out to me

  J Racenstein has steel wool that is a sleeve to be attached to a t-bar
so that it can put on a pole.
  Sorbo has the french door squeegee so that you can do a whole row at
once. Not sure if it is new, but it was the first time I saw it.

I had a go with something similar a few years ago, a big black thing - can't remember the make. It was rubbish. Little control bar straight down girlie style then wasted time having to detail all edges and corners. It ended up with the backflip, simulated chamie and other gadgets in the back of the van.
