wagtail & karcher
« on: March 23, 2015, 09:11:05 pm »
Hey, What's happening,

Today I used a wagtail flipper, the one with the applicator sleeve that hangs down while squeegeeing. Well it was just fab while I cleaned an INTERNAL kitchen glass roof, no having to catch the run of water that is usual from a conventional  squeegee. But more important able to keep one hand on the ladder.It got me thinking that the Karcher window cleaning vacuum would do the same even if upside down????????????

The wagtail flipper wotsit. Was that shop bought or home made? Thanks.
Just chant..... Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare, Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare. It's beats chanting Tory Tory or Labour Labour.

That's interesting and to me a great idea but how the heck do you make one?

Although it is possible to make swivel type squeegees that work same as a wagtail?
Below is our latest DIY Swivel squeegees.

Thanks for the window cleaning warehouse link. I've ordered a wagtail flipper pivot wotsit thingy. It'll be interesting to see how it goes.

H Man, I don't have the ability to make my own otherwise I'd give it a go but thanks anyway.
