good squeegeeing?
« on: October 30, 2014, 07:04:28 am »

Is the best way to keep the squeegee as close to the edges as possible?    Also always go from top left corner to right turning  into an angle or is just dragging from left to right as good?

If you can't fan you can get away with it as long as you wipe the edge of the glass first and your squeegee before each swipe - I find from top to bottom better than side to side.

There's a world of info on Youtube about it, its also to do with getting the right squeegee and knowing
when to change the rubber.
Some newbies tend to think that the rubbers last forever or try to keep them as long as possible to save money.

Cozy is one of the last squeegee advocates on here. He knows what he's talking about. It's all about technique and perfecting yours. If you need to know anything he's a mine of information. Particularly on how to keep your wrist supple.

You've been asking questions for ages, have you got round to cleaning a window yet?

I have joined.   I helped this guy out and he said my wrist was rigid, i guess it's practice to get your wrist more supple!
