12 inch is the all rounder fits most windows,dog eared is where you can bend the channel down at the end of the channel, ;D

If I need to do trad. then 12" for smaller domestic and 14" for larger domestic and commercial.
It's a game of three halves!

I use 10" for houses and 12" for commercial.

For some commercial work where there is a lot of repeated windows, we cut channels to size. Some are bigger, some smaller.

I also always have a 6" channel in my pocket. It's suprising how many times I use it.

As for the mop, I use 2 sizes, 16" and 10". It's incredible how much time can be saved with a larger mop especially with commercial work and large paines of glass when using a pole.

Also, I dog ear every channel just to the amount I like.
